hiring the losers

I agree. The people doing the hiring obviously cannot do the helpful thing and tell applicants: "With your hair color? Those tattoos? The piercings? And the way you mentioned your pronouns 5 times during the interview? No one in their right mind would ever hire you. Get out."

Anyone who says that would face a lawsuit, so no one says that. But it would help a lot of people to hear straight up that if you are way out on the fringe, society has no place for you. But the reality is that when a freak shows up, some hiring managers are afraid of getting into trouble so they almost preferentially hire the losers. Seems like a safer choice, right?

Right.

Also, there is a tremendous amount of age discrimination going on with hiring.

If an applicant is older than the HR people, he/she will be rejected, no matter how much education, discernment and experience they bring to the table

IMO—THE EASIEST WAY TO WEED THEM OUT IS TO DEMAND A LOT OF VERIFIABLE EXPERIENCE.

YOU ARE NOT OFFERING PAY FOR ON THE JOB TRAINING: “OTJT”
