7 Smart Strategies for 50+ Jobseekers is a 3-hour power session that will introduce 45-50+ job seekers to the essential 21st-century job search strategies for people who are looking for a new job mid-life.

The program was developed by AARP Foundation with the combined advice from job search experts, employers, and successful 50+ former job seekers to help current un(der)employed workers organize a job hunt strategy that makes the most of their talents and abilities. Workshop participants leave with tips, advice, and worksheets you can use to take your job search to the next level.

After the workshop, participants are offered the opportunity to work individually with a job coach or job counselor.

Workshop Leaders, Coordinators, and Job Coaches/Counselors will complete an online self-paced training. Workshop leaders will work in pairs to teach the curriculum at our facility as well as local libraries and community centers. Coordinators will collaborate with leaders to set up dates and sites, recruit participants and coaches. Job Coaches/Counselors will support participants to complete each of the strategies for 5-7 sessions post-workshop.
