Description

If you're in your 40s or 50s, have you ever been advised to drop the dates from your education entries and remove a few of the earlier roles from your LinkedIn profile and resume?

Host Doug Lester shares his experience as a coach to MBA alumni and a former executive recruiter to make the case.
