Job Applications

Slightly off topic... a friend recently lost his job when his employer closed. When he applied for unemployment he was informed he had been chosen by NJ to participate in a pilot program of resume writing, which consisted of four, three hour classes. They were told to omit anything that could be used to deduce their age. No schooling dates, and If they have 20 years experience, put down 10. This seems to me, completely alien to the reason for a resume.
