My Campus Chronicles
Our college blog dedicated to helping students prepare for life outside of college.
We recently discovered an online job board and career center specifically targeting workers who are 50 and over. Adage is an Australian-based organization that offers services to candidates with all skills sets from executive to blue collar positions. Adage also has a blog chock full of useful information for mature workers.
Niche sites such as these can be incredibly helpful for candidates because they address workplace questions, issues and concerns that fellow peers have experienced. Take for example, Gen Plus, another blog that addresses more than work and lifestyle issues for those who are 50 and older. Gen Plus, written by the Company's founder, has a mission to bring meaning, esteem and useful information to the mature populations of the United States and Canada.
Also, in your quest for career advice, don't forget to check the Big Time for blog posts regarding this topic. Spherion's very own Carleen MacKay, one of a very few experts in the United States whose career life is specialized in the 50+ workforce, is always offering insight into the world of the mature workforce.
