You're not imagining it. The job market is harder when you're over 40.
According to AARP, 78% of workers 45+ have seen or experienced age discrimination. The average job search takes significantly longer once you hit 50. And "overqualified" is often just code for something else entirely.
CareerCon is the half-day summit built for seasoned professionals 40+ who are done playing by rules that weren't written with them in mind. Whether you've been searching for what feels like forever, ready to pivot entirely, or just trying to figure out your next move, CareerCon is where the questions get answered, and the work gets done.
