I like to tell them that it is not their circumstances or their challenges that define them. It’s how they react to these challenges that actually defines them. Being an older worker and waking up in the morning to another day without needing to hurry up your preparation so you can get to work on time can seem both strange and frightening. Sending out resume after resume and hearing nothing back can be disheartening and create a sense of hopelessness, but this is not a time to throw in the towel or to continue to keep doing what isn’t working. It’s time to get help and learn how to effectively compete with younger job applicants. It’s time to learn how to turn your age and experience into an asset instead of a liability.
If you came to this site because you are an experienced worker, I might have given a pretty good description of what is going on in your life, but OurExperienceCounts.com is here to help. Our staff has been in your shoes, but what makes us different is we are career coaches, HR executives, corporate trainers and former executives whose mission is to provide the training, support and encouragement necessary for us to compete and win that new job.
Mike Cassidy of the San Jose Mercury News called us a, “Lifeline for older workers,” in an article published on April 30th, 2010. It is our mission to empower you by teaching you the skills necessary for you to become your own career coach and hosting a social networking environment that will provide both support and encouragement. Mature workers have the experience and wisdom to help turn this economy around and together we can get back to work and get the job done.
