As we spoke during the interview, everything he brought up, mainly designing packaging for boys toys, is something I’ve done EXTENSIVELY throughout my career. This position would also include working with licensors, and I’ve worked with nearly every child entertainment license in America. It’s as if this position was created just for me.

But…

I got a feeling that he was more concerned with interviewing other candidates then seriously considering me. I hate to say it, but my gut tells me it’s my age. It seems whenever I interview with someone younger than me ( he may be 15+ years younger) they’ve already made up their mind not to consider me.

I hope my gut’s wrong here.
