JUST WONDERED Who of you are over 65 and still working? I am both.
If you are, why are you? Is it for the cash or do you, like me,
NEED to get out and about?
If any member is interested in getting back to work I recommend you
join a Job Club. The website of GB Job Clubs contains a wealth of
information. The local JC are likely to offer:
1 career analysis
2 work/lifestyle insights
3 researching employers
4 drafting CV(s) + covering letter(s)
5 mock interviews
6 preparing for the interview........etc
Our local job club had a 20% to 25% known success rate in its first
year - some reckon an 80% success.
Starting your own business is an alternative which you may find for
your mettle. The Job Club may help you with your thinking about the
early stages - business plan, steps and procedures, getting
training, understanding the law....etc.
Our local job club has assisted in a small way at least three men
and women ito get their businesses underway.
