5991: No Baby Boomers Or Gen Xers Allowed.


Creative Circle continues to present peculiar messages. This actual job listing appears to have a potentially illegal request, announcing the employer is seeking an Echo Boomer. Is it blatant ageism, or does Creative Circle realize veteran creatives won’t accept $25-$35 per hour?
