Title: Why is it difficult for people over 40 years old to find employment, but there is no way for people over 50 years old?Revealing the truth!

In Europe and the United States, men generally retire at the age of 65 and women retire at the age of 60

Both 40 and 50 are still middle-aged, and it is relatively easy to find a job if you change jobs.

In China, however, men retire at age 60 and women retire at age 50.

If you lose your job at the age of 40, you will have 20 years to go before retirement age for men and 10 years before retirement age for women.

Finding a job at this age can be awkward, and once the employer learns that you are 40 years old, they will not be interested in you.

If you look for a job at the age of 50, there are few opportunities for other jobs other than security guards and cleaners.

I have a cousin, also after graduating from a prestigious university, who works for a well-known Internet company.

He was paid well, but he had to work overtime every day and work late.

When he was 39 years old, he was at odds with his new leader, who often made things difficult for him.

During this time, he felt very depressed and depressed in his work, so he decided to resign and prepare to switch to another Internet company.

He was in charge of the technical field in his previous unit and has a lot of experience and ability.

He thinks that after quitting his job, it should not be a problem to find a job with a similar salary.

However, after he resigned from his previous employer, he submitted a lot of resumes online, but he didn't get a chance to interview.

He had been resting at home for more than a year, but still hadn't found a new job, which made him panic.

He needs to repay the mortgage of several thousand yuan every month, and his children still have to go to school, and he only has no income every day, and his financial situation has become blank, which is really unacceptable.

In the end, he returned to his original job through a relationship, but the salary was only half of what he was before.

Despite his reluctance, he could only bow to fate.

The little cousin is still doing well, while my younger brother is not so lucky

My eldest brother started his career as a technician in the injection molding industry and has been working in the industry for more than 20 years.

Initially, he worked in a private company for more than a decade, training many apprentices.

However, his private company later closed down, so he switched careers to work in an injection molding factory in the south, where he still worked as a technician, earning more than 10,000 yuan a month.

He is mainly responsible for repairing machines and molds, and does not have to go down to the workshop to carry heavy loads.

However, in 2021, due to the new crown epidemic, the factory where he worked was cheated out of a large order by a foreign company, which led to the rupture of the capital chain and the bankruptcy of the factory.

So, my brother had to leave the south and return to Zhengzhou.

At this time, my brother was 51 years old, he wanted to find a job similar to the past, but he couldn't find it at all, he submitted a lot of resumes online, but no one invited him to the interview.

In the end, my brother had to work in a private factory, working 12 hours a day to earn a meager salary to support his family.

Unemployment is really hard for people in their 40s and 50s, when there are both old people and children, and it is the time to spend money, and if you lose your job again, it will be even worse.

A 40-year-old person is 20 years away from retirement, and a 50-year-old person is 10 years away from retirementIn recent years, due to the impact of the epidemic, the economy has been sluggish, many people have lost their jobs, and even a large number of recent college graduates cannot find jobs, who will hire people in their forties and fifties?When people reach the age of forty or fifty, although they have a lot of work experience, they find that their bodies are gradually declining.

When people in this age group are looking for jobs, they should avoid picking, and don't care about the so-called face, and the most important thing is to be able to make a living.

The men came to an end, and they became security guards;When women come to an end, they become cleaners

Life is hard for everyone, it's an inescapable reality.
