Initially it was a phone call screening from human resources. They asked me about my experience and technical questions about my knowledge. I answered all their questions. I actually have twice the number of years of experience that the job required. I could have easily picked up where the last person left off. After some time passed, I was advised that they decided to go with someone "with more experience". When I questioned that, they awkwardly stumbled over their words, trying to figure out what to say. It is obvious I was passed up because of my age, and that this company does NOT value skilled experienced workers. It us their loss. People like me work diligently and are reliable, as well as efficient in the completion of tasks.
