A third of hiring managers don't want to hire older workers or Gen Zers

A survey from Resume Builder found that 36% of hiring managers said they were biased against Gen Z candidates, and 34% said they had concerns about hiring candidates over the age of 60.

Ageism isn't new, of course, though the survey findings are a reminder that even in a strong job market, it can still be tough to land a new gig. Having people discount your abilities because of how young or old you are doesn't help.

"You need to be aware of pitfalls like age bias," Stacie Haller, the chief career advisor at Resume Builder, told Business Insider. "You have to know the landscape you're in."
