Yeah, I know about that. I'm 54. However:
1) I look quite a bit younger than that;
2) They're not supposed to ask your age anyway (right?); and
3) I didn't get my degree until '94, and my working life has broken down into segments doing different things (IT, then office management). It's not like I'm pointing to a 1975 bachelor's degree and 30 years' experience in something, which would be a giveaway. I can let them assume I'm much younger than I am.
Generally, too, these online places seem only to deal with private-sector jobs, never ones at universities, which (along with the federal and state jobs) might be my best bet.
