So What If I'm 65 Get a Job Get the Most Out of Your Best Years eBook Bob Weinstein

I haven't finished reading the book yet, but so far it seems to be pretty informative. I've mostly read about the reasons that older workers are not hired and also some myths about older workers. I haven't gotten to the part about how to actually find a job and get hired. I think that's in there later on.

So What If I'm 65 Get a Job Get the Most Out of Your Best Years eBook Bob Weinstein Reviews

"Bob Weinstein hit the nail on the head with this one!!! He talks openly about the sensitive topic of age discrimination in today's 'youth skewed' hiring process and provides the older worker solid guidance and advice as to how they can successfully navigate the obstacles."

This book is helpful for anyone over the age of 40. Bob Weinstein writes about the importance of staying relevant, especially in an age where digital media and technological advances abound. This book prompted me to become active on LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter, not only to understand these forms of media, but as an important means of networking for future job opportunities. Mr. Weinstein takes an honest look at how society views age. It's both disturbing and enlightening, but ultimately an honest and helpful view of how older workers have to work hard to remain attractive in today's workforce.
How refreshing is it to read the truth after suffering through simplistic, patronizing career and life guides. SO WHAT IF I'M 65 is in another category. I connected to it immediately. I felt that it was written for me and about me, and that Bob Weinstein understood my frustration, despair, and desperation about suffering close to two years of job rejections. And they were jobs I was more than qualified for. The reasons I was rejected? It wasn't my credentials, interview or people skills or my attitude. It was because I was 70. By American standards, that's old. It was ageism and age discrimination. But I couldn't prove it. Organizations are not about to fess up to the truth and say that they hire only young bodies, and reject old ones. Weinstein cuts through all the doublespeak and puts the age issue on the table. I read SO WHAT IF I'M 65 in under two hours. It was truly a redemptive experience because I not only felt that I wasn't alone, but there was someone who not only understood what I was going thru, but who had experienced the same kind of rejection and feelings of despair until he figured out what was happening and saw himself in a new light. And that new light felt empowering. A lot of older workers are not going to like what Weinstein tells them. But they're going to be different people because of it. They're not going to be ashamed or embarrassed because they couldn't slow the aging process and stay perpetually young. If willing to embrace the truth, they're going to feel proud of who they are, and they're going to start living life with a new sense of purpose -- embracing every day as another chance to achieve and accomplish. SO WHAT IF I'M 65 ought to be required reading for baby boomers.
A clear and honest assessment of the state of the labor force for older workers. Gives pause and much to consider in approaching the job market. Not a blueprint, but a great resource for information for Boomers. Still up to the individual to retool and adjust to the new realities.
Just finished reading this book today on . Commend the author on how much work went into the research to show me, at 65, how we all got to the place of needing work at 65 years plus.
I really liked this book. It has lots of practical information and tips you can use in your job search. I'm 62 years old and feel like I have a lot more to offer an employer than at any point in my career. It's very frustrating that Corporate America doesn't see it this way. And I found out through this book that I'm not alone and have good reason to feel the way I do. But this book also taught me how to get past this frustration, take action, and actually find a job.
