Started with a phone screen where the HR person spent some time discussing their background which was interesting. Explained that the position that I had applied for was not high on their list to fill (small market). Even with my background in restaurant management, sales of IT equipment to restaurants, and active restaurant owner contacts, the HR person felt that I could not work at the pace the required (which was a really strange statement considering I'm juggling 600 projects currently). In the the end I took this as age discrimination and reported accordingly with no response back.

My first (and hopefully only) experience dealing with a company that practices “Ageism”, just as illegal as other discriminatory hiring practices, by the way, Door Dash 😳. I am an experienced sales manager and could easily have handled and excelled in this position. The people who interviewed me had significantly less real world and business experience and I knew that but did my best to not come across in any way other than as a sincere applicant. Throughout the process there was a tangible undertone that this is a “young “ company and if you’re older than mid thirties you’re not young enough...and I’m older than 40. After Reading the reviews on Facebook it’s clear that this company has issues and I’m glad I did not get hired... Steer clear of them if you are over 25...I’m not kidding...it was so strange and they should realize it’s illegal.
