I recently stumbled upon an article which discussed age discrimination in Australia. It stated that many people over the age of 40 have a very difficult time find employment. I know if I go to professional(either Dentistry or Medicine) school in Australia I will be in my mid 30's and approaching that dreaded age. Will my age be an issue when seeking employment after finishing school? I know in the States that there are many older medical students and most Americans actually feel more comfortable around older doctors. Is age discrimination a major issue in Australia for physicians and dentists?
