My Place for Hosting Offers Answer to CareerBuilder 'Age Bias' Editorial
GlobeNewswire
2012-01-23

         My Place for Hosting Offers an Answer to a Recent
       Careerbuilder.Com Editorial on "Age Bias," Providing
      Resources for Home-Based Employment Where Age and Other
                Demographic Factors are Non-Issues

PHOENIX, Jan. 23, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- While some young people are
prone to including their age, the date of their college graduation, or
even a photograph of themselves on their resumes and CVs, most job
seekers of greater maturity know that this is unwise. Though
discrimination based on age is illegal, that does not mean it is
non-existent among many top employers, a point made by a recent
CareerBuilder.com editorial, posted at CNN. According to
CareerBuilder.com, there is a set of "negative stereotypes that exist"
for job seekers over 50, leaving these aspiring workers with the
difficult task of refuting these stereotypes while proving to employers
the benefits of their age and experience. CareerBuilder.com's concerns
find an answer, however, in the services rendered by technological
resource company My Place for Hosting. A spokesperson for the company
responds to the CareerBuilder.com editorial by affirming its concerns,
but saying My Place for Hosting renders them largely moot.

My Place for Hosting offers services for a range of job seekers,
including those who fall into the challenging demographic cited by
CareerBuilder.com. The resources offered by My Place for Hosting are
all centered on the affiliate marketing industry, wherein home-based
employment is the norm. For those seeking employment in this arena, a
My Place for Hosting spokesperson notes, age and other potential
sources of discrimination are non-issues.

While CareerBuilder.com notes that traditional forms of employment call
on mature job hunters to emphasize "a flexible management style,
technological proficiency, ability to learn new skills and the
willingness to work for a younger boss." The My Place for Hosting
spokesperson says affiliate marketing jobs eliminate the need for these
efforts. The spokesperson also notes, in response to the
CareerBuilder.com editorial, that because affiliate marketing can
easily be learned and implemented from home, it is never necessary for
age or level of experience to be disclosed.

My Place for Hosting provides technical solutions and support for
home-based affiliate marketers. The company is especially popular among
those new to the industry, due largely to its emphasis on customer
service, something unique in the affiliate marketing world.

According to the My Place for Hosting spokesperson, the affiliate
marketing industry is an ideal industry for those over fifty because
the work is flexible and low-maintenance, and because the pertinent
skills can all be learned on the job.
