HR Veteran Struggles to Land Job at 40

Swapnil Shinde, a 40-year-old HR professional with 15 years of experience, is struggling to find a job.

He has been searching for seven months, updating his resume, and networking, but hasn't had any success.

He shared his story on LinkedIn, which went viral, highlighting the challenges professionals in their 40s face in the job market.

Many people over 40 are finding it harder to switch jobs or get hired due to ageism and biases in recruitment processes.

This is a growing concern, especially in India, where age discrimination is a top priority in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts.

Swapnil's experience shows how difficult it can be to find a job at this age, even with extensive experience and a strong background in the field.
