    • Consider if you’d like full time, part time, short term, long term, or even a job sharing role.

  • How exciting, now is a great time to consider your options for a post-retirement or second career.

    • Do you want a role that builds off of your pre-retirement career or would you like to try something new?

    • Do you want a role closer to where you live?

How to Get Started

  • Assemble a 1-2 page resume of your accomplishments and skills. Try not to skip things in your timeline. If you were out of the workforce for a few months or years for personal reasons, it is ok to note that on your resume. Send us your resume and contact information, and we’d be glad to schedule a time to review it and help advise on job options.

  • Think about your professional and personal networks.  Who do you know from previous positions, volunteer work, your local neighborhood, or school?  Go to LinkedIn and review your list of contacts.  Ideally, you should have a minimum of 100, if not 500+ contacts, across your career.  Reach out to them and let them know that you are looking for a new position.

The Next Steps

Making Connections:

We have contacts, you have contacts, and employers have needs, plans, and sometimes dreams.  We have several places where we can help you in this process.

Finding Options & Opportunities:

We provide coaching and help people identify what options are available and what they might want.  We will see what matches we have, and if we know of any places you should apply, too.

Resume Review and Support:

We will give you advice on your resume and are also happy to review a draft resume if you are not sure how to proceed. ChatGPT or other AI services can also be helpful to leverage when looking to update your resume and just be sure the final result is reflective of your skills and truthful.

And on to the excitement!

While it might not be this week or next week, we will work with you to find a role which aligns the needs of a company with your next career move. We thrive on ensuring proper placement of our employees for rewarding career opportunities.
