Job search for the mature worker

What are some of the biggest challenges you face during job search as a
mature worker? What can you do to overcome the common perceptions that
companies, hiring managers and recruiters have that may hold you back from
moving forward and finding your dream job?

In this engaging presentation, Certified Professional Coach and Speaker Bob
Weingartner will share his insights on how to bust some of the common myths
about mature workers and getting hired. Mature job seekers are the total
package when it comes to hiring. So why do employers buy into the notion
that their age is a drawback? Come with your questions and leave with
answers that give you confidence and help you land that job, in spite of
your age!

Note: although this presentation is focused on the mature worker, Bob's
enthusiasm and expertise will be of interest to job workers of all ages. We
think this meeting is rated "G" for General Audiences of All Ages.
