With limited openings in so many industries in the current economic climate and a fear of redundancy which is palatable, it’s all too easy to obsess over any details which may have an effect on your employment. Not just employment history and education concerns either apparently; one American medical spa feels your age could be a factor. Especially if you look old.
Whether it's free tax filing or just a free meal, tough economic times in South Florida have led many businesses to offer their services on the house, but one Fort Lauderdale is taking it to another level with free botox injections.
A few months ago, Tribeca Medaesthetics began offering free procedures - a little botox here, a laser hair removal there - to customers who couldn't afford their cosmetic services but could explain why they required it.

Drawing blood to draw a paycheck: South Florida job hunters seek cosmetic procedures.
Johnson, 63-year-old bookkeeper Raema Joss of Hollywood and Laurie Miller, a 50-something entertainer who previously worked on a cruise ship, are among 1,200 of South Florida's newly jobless who recently vied for free Botox, dermal fillers, laser liposuction and other cosmetic procedures offered by Dr. Jason Shapiro of Fort Lauderdale.
Job hunting in a recession is a tough assignment - with almost one in ten people out of work in the US, it takes more than a spruced-up CV, a tidy haircut or a smart new suit to stand out from the crowd these days.
But doctors in the US have found a new way to give the unemployed a leg-up with a "Botox bailout", offering thousands of dollars worth of free Botox injections, liposuctions and other cosmetic procedures to ensure they look their very best - and perhaps a little more youthful - at interviews.
In an era characterized by both an excess of vanity and a dearth of jobs, what's a good samaritan with a medical a degree to do? Dr. Jason Shapiro of Ft. Lauderdale invited out-of-work people to submit essays explaining why they needed Botox, liposuction, and other techniques in his field of "aesthetic medicine" to get on with their lives. Some 1,200 responded and he's now injecting and sculpting 50 lucky winners, a disproportionate number of whom are older workers who said they felt they needed the procedures to compete against younger job applicants. We don't begrudge people who want to look their best, but we can't help but note that the typical job seeker who doesn't have a sugar doctor on hand may need those thousands of dollars for, oh, rent, or groceries. And that there's something discomfiting about physical perfection being a subtle new job requirement for nurses and office managers (as opposed to, say, Hooters dancers.) We'd rather live in a society that didn't discriminate on the basis of age. What do you think?
Older job seekers are under the gun — and willing to go under the knife — to stay competitive with their youthful counterparts.
With unemployment at a 25-year high, job seekers such as Broward interior designer Jerry Johnson think a little nip, tuck or peel might be the answer to getting work.

”It’s been rough,” said Johnson, 55. ”It’s hard at this age. You kind of feel like a dinosaur.” He closed his five-year-old furniture store on Las Olas Boulevard last year. This month, he became one of the 50 selected for free procedures plus a makeover. Having his crow’s feet smoothed and age spots faded, he hopes, will produce a younger look that eventually will lead to work.
Medical director of Tribeca Medaesthetics. The "Beauty and the Botox" contest, which asked participants to write 300-word essays about why they deserve free Botox injections, cellulite reductions or laser hair removals, was inspired by customers who told him they were worried about getting the procedures because they were hunting for jobs.
