During your face-to-face interviews, the subject matter is not the only thing that counts. Once you get to the interview panel the hiring personnel know that you are competent. But what else are they looking for? Here are some green flags, recruiters feel out for during the interview process, that indicate if you could be a fit.
A learning mindset - The onboarding process is seamless when you have an open mindset and willingness to learn and adapt to a new work environment. This comes in handy as you grow with the company too.
Familiarity with the company - Study the company and understand its purpose, business model, the types of activities you’d likely be engaged with and tell us how you would like to contribute beyond the scope of the job description.
A healthy curiosity - Feel free to ask relevant questions regarding, the responsibilities the intrinsic motivation of the existing team, the company policy, or anything else relevant to the position
Clarity in communication - Being able to clearly articulate your goals and showcase your skills is a make-or-break factor during the interview.
Reasonable salary expectations - Not every business can afford top-paid talent or are willing to commit to those expectations right away during an interview. Smaller and medium-sized businesses would prefer to stick to market norms.
Ageism in the workplace may not seem so obvious at first, but it exists everywhere. If you are the oldest person in your office or potential workplace, you may want to evaluate the situation a little.
Take steps to address potential age discrimination even if it is very subtle and unintentional.
1. Keep your skills fresh.
Every single industry changes over time. Some fields like technology and media evolve faster, as new products develop and priorities change. The core skills you developed throughout your career still matter. But so do new skills you will need to learn to stay relevant in the workplace.
2. Focus on your skills, not your “over-qualification,” in interviews.
Experience is normally a net positive unless you are an older candidate. The interview panel may be concerned that you are too qualified. If you feel the job in question requires skills far below what you offer, bow out graciously. But if the position suits your current skill set (and pay requirements), then outline your expertise differently.
3. Emphasize your problem-solving skills.
Companies are always going to have challenges, and a chief function of business is to identify and solve them. Unlike millennials, you may not have a reliance on smart technology and search engines to fix problems. The ability to offer creative solutions without depending on technology could be your superpower.
4. Be proactive about requesting feedback
When you have a lot of experience, you will be functioning more independently. From time to time, solicit feedback from your peers and managers. It shows your willingness to adapt and change, get ahead of any potential concerns, and course-correct if need be.
Being “seasoned,” or “older” in the workplace does not need to be a career killer. Your high level of experience can be the key that unlocks doors to new opportunities–and leads you to the next steps in building your legacy.

Companies might not be hiring today, because they’re figuring out how to do business virtually, but they will be hiring.
1. Recognize the immediate concerns first
If you can afford to put your job search on hold, you may want to linger in your current role. If you’re unemployed and need a stopgap, pursue opportunities that makes sense for you, not just pays the bill. Don't rush into anything.
2. Learn, unlearn, relearn
If you are thinking about getting more skilled or complete certification exams, this is the ideal time for that. This way when the market improves, you'll be better qualified.
3. Introspect
A slow job market gives you a breather where you can realign your career goals or explore your options. Reach out to mentors who will encourage your aspirations.
4. Keep networking online
Follow other professionals in your industry socially and signup for virtual events. Make yourself more visible by participating in relevant conversations, posting articles to demonstrate your expertise.
5. Research
Take note of how leadership deals with this emergency by following a prospective company on social media and watching for any media coverage. When called in for an interview, you capitalize on what you have learnt as discussion points and explain how you could support their goals.
Work on the foundation you can build up on so that when the crisis is over you can put up the walls.
