Senior Career Options

SeniorCareerSource provides a unique career solution for a new breed of “senior.” We are no longer forced to retire. The corporate world has invested too much into us to let us go. There are options, if not within the company that developed our skills and honed our talents.

There are headhunters and organizations that are designed for retirees who are embarking on a second career. SeniorCareerSource is an employment resource that helps seniors find job opportunities that match both their skills, their needs, and their new life goals, interests and availability.

There are many businesses out there who cannot afford a fully trained professional full time. This has given birth to a new employee base - senior employment.

My mother inlaw is a fully trained purchasing accountant and auditor who has two accounting university degrees. She was so despondent when they retired her. Now, she works 'when she wants to.' If she cannot go into work, then she goes to work. She is never given a deadline project.

Her main job is to watchdog those who are running the company. The company doesn't want to find themselves in legal trouble caused by a illegal activities. So they employed my mother in law to keep track of what is going on within the firm - in her own time.

Self-employment is not the only option for professionals who do not want to stop working. It is not always the right choice. These agencies let professionals create a free profile, and helps them brows through employeers who are looking for seniors to work with them. No more appologising for the fact that you are not young, or that you are not looking for full time employment.

There are several of these senior employment sites. SeniorCareerSource is the only job bank serving Massachusetts and Connecticut that helps people find retirement jobs to satisfy their goals and lifestyles.
