Jobs And Over Aged Applicants
Though some employers would prefer a younger workforce, the
older applicants still have a wide variety of career choices to
choose from.
Employers are starting to see the potential of older and
much-experienced applicants as can be seen by the statistics
below:
q In Australia, Bureau of Statistics showed that between the
period of August of 1989 to that of August of 2003, the
workforce aged 15-24 lost more than 380,000 jobs to older
workers.
Aside from the fact that most of Australia's younger generation
became full-time students, employers favored the older
applicants.
q In Netherlands on the other hand (by December of 2000), over
500,000 thousand of their employees are 55 years old and above.
This figure had been increasing steadily since 1995.
To have a head start from the younger applicants, one has to
take into consideration the following:
1. In writing one's resume, put more weight in highlighting the
accomplishments without necessarily bragging about it.
One could have these lists of accomplishments and previous posts
held work for one's advantage over younger applicants who may
not even have any experience on the same field.
An individual's employment history receives as much scrutiny as
the applicant itself. While employers tend to look for gaps or
lapses of time when the applicant has been unemployed, they also
tend to focus on the length of service one had rendered for
their previous
employers.
Frequent change of work (usually within very short time frames)
can be alarming for prospective employers.
2. Read and enroll in programs that will refresh your knowledge
on certain fields especially if engaged in professional sectors.
This will keep you individual abreast of the latest trend in
such fields.
3. Search the Internet for vacancies. A lot of agencies place
ads on the net that advertises help for senior citizens in
looking for jobs. Various search engines made easier and
specific (can choose the following categories: career, location
and field of interest) are also available.
Jobs that do not usually look into the age of the applicant are
the following:
1. Professional work that are into specialization. For
applicants in the medical field (i.e. Doctors) experience is the
basic determinant of being hired.
2. Lectures or speaking engagements. Speakers that are invited
to discuss certain topics do not really have an age requirement.
Rather, qualification focuses more on first hand knowledge and
experience.
3. Writers. Writing novels, plays or children's books are one of
those professions whose only requirement is good writing skills.
Also, one can do the job at the comfort of their own homes, a
plus factor for those in their advanced years.
