I've seen articles that say to eliminate the years of experience on your resume to try and not show your age.

So, On my resume I have: "25+ years experience developing systems ....." and some articles say to change it to something like: "Experienced at developing systems..." to not show age.

However, I let them know up front my experience....and they can guess my age. I don't want to get all dressed up in a suit and tie, drive somewhere for an interview and then get eliminated for age.

Why hide it?

Any ideas or comments?

***My suggestion is to put your picture on your CV***

I would NEVER get hired anywhere.....

 Chaps,

I'm of a certain age now - plus 50 - and I show all my experience on my CV. I think it lends gravitas and dignity :-)

To be honest I don't wanna work for kids unless they want to hire someone with experience. 

I didn't start in IT until my late 20s, so they think I'm in my 40s anyway.
