Jim Stroud’s The Recruiters Lounge

There is a lot of talk about the changing demographics of today’s workforce. One company answering the challenge is Retirement Jobs. I stumbled across it online and thought it was a site worth sharing.

From their website…

RetirementJobs.com, Inc. was founded by a team of professionals with senior executive backgrounds in media, online recruiting and human capital management. They have worked at major media brands such as AOL, ABC and CNN, built and managed strategic relationships with leading e-recruiters such as Monster, Careerbuilder and Hotjobs, and helped found or build successes such as Net-Temps and Salary.com.

Along with a growing number of labor analysts, RetirementJobs.com’s human resources experts observe that a long-predicted workforce change is now underway. The change, possibly the largest since women went to work en masse in the 1970’s, is spurred by several factors. Among them: population shifts that have baby boomers turning age 60 amidst a dwindling supply of younger workers, health changes that have people living longer than ever, a new definition of retirement that includes a desire to stay active or a need to remain gainfully employed (see “What is a Retirement Job?”), and new research confirming what many may have known all along– that, on top of experience, older workers bring valuable traits such as lower turnover, greater dependability, a stronger work ethic, and flexibility over work schedule and pay.

Here at RetirementJobs.com, our goal is to identify companies most-suited to older workers and match them with active, productive, conscientious, mature adults seeking a job or project that matches their lifestyle. Whether you are here seeking to supplement your income, a new challenge, a way to get out and meet people, or another reason, welcome! We are working hard to make each of your visits here a positive one, and we know our work will never quite be done.

Hmmm… Will there be more career sites like this on the net soon? I wonder…
