The good news is that companies do hire mature workers. The bad news is that many baby boomer job seekers do not know how to carry out a modern job search or present themselves to employers in the way that best represents their background. Ineffective resumes, job searches, and interviews can derail anyone's job search, but they can completely shut out the mature job applicant. Job Hunting After 50 will prepare you with a plan of action to carry out an effective job search to get the job you want. It covers self-assessment of skills and qualifications, preparing a resume for today's market, dressing with style, using technology to find a job, identifying common mistakes made by job seekers over 50 and how to avoid them, and interviewing skills. Emphasis is placed on updating skills, improving energy level and attitude, and determining where the best jobs are for this age group.

好消息是公司确实雇佣了成熟的员工。坏消息是，许多婴儿潮一代的求职者不知道如何进行现代求职，也不知道如何以最能代表他们背景的方式向雇主展示自己。无效的简历、求职和面试可能会使任何人的求职脱轨，但它们会完全排斥成熟的求职者。50岁以后找工作会让你准备好一个行动计划，进行有效的求职，以获得你想要的工作。它包括对技能和资历的自我评估、为当今市场准备简历、穿着时尚、使用技术找工作、识别50岁以上求职者的常见错误以及如何避免这些错误，以及面试技巧。重点放在更新技能、提高能量水平和态度，以及确定适合这一年龄组的最佳工作地点。
