As Director of Learning with a global outplacement and career transitioning firm, Judith defies the myth that people are too old to contribute in the workplace. She advocates the value of formal education at any age, and finding joy in lifelong learning.

Key Takeaways:

• 
  
• Approach interviews by telling your success stories. Share who you are, what it is about you that stands out, what you do well, and what you want to do; how you can contribute.
  
• Be open to roles in different industries as most people end up in a business or industry by circumstance and opportunity.
  
• Many companies are willing to pay for the wisdom and value brought by experienced individuals.
  

"There’s a lot more joy in late life careers. You find that you can do things you didn’t do before, you don’t have the same anxieties, and you can take risks you were unable to early in your career." - Judith DeVries
