Job Searching for Those Over 50 September 22, 2010

On Wednesday, Sept. 22, the Tigard Library will host a seminar by experts from Oregon AARP on job searching strategies and tactics for people who are over 50. From 1 to 4 p.m., a workshop will help job hunters learn to deal with the common stereotypes of workers over 50.

Aimed at both those who are currently unemployed and those looking to make a career move, the workshop will provide advice on how those over 50 can present their experience as assets to potential employers. Attendees will receive a job search packet with information, resources and tips.

Networking opportunities will be available before and after the presentation. The program will be held in the Community Room. For more information, please call the Library at 503-718-2517 or visit the Library's Web page at http://www.tigard-or.gov/library and click on Adult Events.
