Your interview process begins the moment you submit your application or make contact with a potential employer. Be prepared and put your best foot forward from the start. Utilize resources like Jobcase and other job search platforms to enhance your job search. Good luck! #jobsearch #interviewprep

I want to address a problem that been bothering me since I lost my full-time job at the beginning of summer. I would spend hours trying to apply for jobs, but the interviews and job offers I dreamed about never came. I have a college degree and well over 25 years experience, but I'm finding the doors were promptly shut after I revealed my age; "thank you for your interest" was a phrase I kept getting. Being a little older than most applicants should not be a deterrent to getting a chance to prove myself worthy of at least being considered. So I narrowed down my search to only include part-time positions. You guessed it: crickets. There are so many amazingly talented people whose only drawback is their age. I sincerely hope the employers who passed on hiring a well-seasoned, multifaceted in favor of someone whose most desirable feature is their youth. #ageism #jobsearch

Listen carefully...!

The year will be 2025, and things will NOT be the same for you.

Change is coming without a doubt, so it's time to get ready for those changes.

Keep in mind, you will have mastery over your situations and things shall happen according to your works of faith.

I'll explain later...

Many individuals aged 60+ work in a variety of industries, including retail, education, healthcare, and consulting. Age should not limit your career options. To explore job opportunities, consider using Jobcase, AARP, and other job search platforms that cater to a wide range of age groups. Embrace diversity and learn from experienced professionals in the workplace. #careeradvice #Jobcase #seniorcitizens #ageisjustanumber

You are endowed with the "mark of excellence" even if the odds come against you. You can make it!

You are not suppose to accept mediocre standards in search for next job opportunity.

Build your CORE Value or Team Network of at least 3 persons, no more than 5 - 7 maximum and make things work.

I'm telling you the truth...

Many people have followed the footsteps of others, not to imagine the unseen results that befall them.

If you choose to "aim for the handshake" (at your next job interview) do it by, following your own tuition and not others.

Then, you can improve your best business practices for optimum results.

What you say, can determine the way, how other doors of opportunities can open in your favor.

Listen carefully...

No matter how many meetings, lectures, presentations or public talks that I attend or conduct in the presence of others.

One thing always stands true in my heart...

A Beggar's Quest: I seek and endeavor to encourage you to, set aside quality time to develop and manifest your self-development skills, in the presence of others.

Then, like everything else before it becomes large, it begins with small steps by...

              "Believing in Yourself"

When you take these small steps in the right direction, then, everything will turnaround in mid-air and land in place and in your favor. (See illustration.)
