Sorry, I couldn't find that thread where we were talking about this. I had an interview with a recruiter yesterday and I asked about getting on at a big tax firm. She said that the reason firms are so reluctant to hire anyone older than 30 was that their experience had shown that older people couldn't work for younger people without it hurting their egos. That is incredibly specific to each individual of course, so if you're trying to get on at a big firm you might want to find a way to prove that won't be a problem for you.
