I'm 52, and last month I have just lost my job as Marketing Director / Art Director at a local company. My work has been appreciated, but company structure is going through major changes. I run my own design small agency, since 1992. I don't have yet as many contracts as I want / need.
The biggest challenge is to take the correct next step. Should I go after one big company - leading position, or should I focus on my small company?
Do big companies hire someone my age? Does my experience count in that cases?
I'm based in Mexico, where retirement age is 10 years above US standards...
