New opportunities: jobs for those over 40
July 17, 2007 By: almostgotit Category: Uncategorized, education, career change, Chapter 2Good news for “older employees:” According to MSN, there’s hope after all!
Apparently, there’s a huge job shortage looming just ahead as baby-boomers approach retirement, meaning that several industries will be particularly short-handed when it comes to the more experienced employees that they most want and need. Among the most promising of those industries are health care, business-to-business services, education, and services for the elderly.
What makes these particular jobs attractive to the seasoned employee is that they tend to be both lucrative and flexible; moreover, they call upon one’s existing expertise and experience, requiring at most only a minimal investment in school or retraining.
The key? Being open-minded. Also, just a little thing — we may have to wait until 2014.
