Today I’m issuing a confession and congratulations all in a single post. We work hard here at Workforce50.com and progress is painfully slow sometimes. But we’re committed to being an honest, high-quality web site with a mission and purpose of serving the over fifty community with employment information and resources.
My confession as the Editor of this web site is that I’m sooooo frustrated by the complaints that we receive about the low number of job postings on the web site. Yes, we are in an economic downturn and most employers are suffering through layoffs and hiring freezes and periods of employees living fearful of losing their jobs. But here’s the thing. We have committed to the 50+ community to put out a genuine product. That means that we will not aggregate job postings from the various large database services out there. That means that when someone finds a posting on our site, they can be assured that age is not only NOT an issue with the advertising employer but the employer is actively searching for older qualified candidates to fill that position. The employer will not be surprised that their job is displayed on an over-50 web site.
