When I was in my 40s and I was presently jobless, I received an email from a former boss. He was offering me a position in the bank. Although I was not well-versed with the small computers during that time, I did some learning in one day. When I went to the bank for an interview it was informal and the manager was like asking general things. In other words, I was already hired due to the recommendation of my former boss. It was good to have a connection because in our country workers who are past 40 have very slim chance of landing a job. To think that it was a job in a bank which is of a high position then I was really lucky that I was friends with my former boss. In fairness to me, I had the skills and in one month I was already settled with the job that I already knew what to do.
