What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
Who is "they"?MD is my state and the long and short is that when I sold employment classifieds about 15 years ago, they hounded us about being "neutral" regarding gender, age, recent college grad, etc. I am now looking for work and I see tons of postings for jobs for which I am otherwise qualified that go against that thinking. Have the rules changed? If they haven't, out of curiosity, wouldn't I have reason to contest this that advertise in this manner? Thx
They were being overly cautious.they hounded us about being "neutral" regarding gender, age, recent college grad, etc.

Typo fixed Makes a big difference in the way your message could be interpreted.Employment advertising not is much different than it was 15 years ago...
No, I meant exactly what I said. Now, you log on to Craigslist and post an ad. 15 years ago, you called somebody at the local paper and they would "pre-screen" your ad which would help you avoid an illegal advertisement.Typo fixed Makes a big difference in the way your message could be interpreted.
Ah I see what you're saying. Your two thoughts in that sentence didn't seem to go together. You're right about Craigslist but anybody can report a post that doesn't follow Craigslist's guidelines. How long or whether they take any action to delete it is another story.No, I meant exactly what I said.
