Good evening everyone
Trust we all had a good day
There's something bothering me I need answers too...


Can a man at d age of 47 still get a job? sad

I know of a man who started software engineering at 47 years old and the last I heard, he was the CTO in his company after some years. Age isn’t a big deal if you don’t let it get in the way of your productivity.

Also read of a guy who got a job at google at that age. Can’t give up on your aspirations because of age.

The best bet is to be self employed, an employer is better than an employee

There are jobs and there are jobs.

I've seen a 52 year old engineer get a Team Lead job that paid N1.5million per month with accommodation in a highbrow area in Abuja with a chauffeured car.

Imagine that kind of salary and you aren't paying rent or transportation........

Do that for 3 years and tell.me you don't have capital in the millions for any business you want.
Lol. Engineer and doctors de get work for 100 years. Na dere experience Dem need

Them don sack you for work, you don come here come dey cry. When you been get employment you tell us.

My problem is that many people spend their whole life say 25 to 30 working for people. Bringing good ideas and growing their bosses business at the end they will not have anything tangible. Just imagine giving such diligence to your business. Your children will enjoy your hustle.
Guy don't talk like this ,life is a funny place and there is no manual for it,because you make it early does not make u expert over others,he didn't pray for such u know.

I cant imagine someone being in the workforce for so long and not get more professional qualifications

Sure why not. What is your line of discipline?
Re: Can A 47-year-old Man Still Get A Job? by Osiris16: 11:24pm On May 25, 2021
The answer is yes, I’ve worked in 3 different very excellent organisations in the past few years and I’ve seen 47 or older people get recruited.
You have the qualifications and years of experience.
Best of luck

If u know somebody dat knows somebody
But I advise u to start something urself, employ urself

Easier said than done. Not everybody has the makings and aptitude to own and run a successful business. If everyone owned their own business, then who will be working for all the companies. Research the percentage of businesses that fail within their first 3 years. My point is, everyone's solution is not to start a business.

At 47?
Guy stop thinking like a 20-year old.
Kill the mentality of working for someone.

Don't tell me you didn't save a reasonable amount of money for the 18 years you worked there.
Be independent please.
Awesome reply.
