Employment (Part Time or Full Time) for seniors and/or early retirees, based upon personal experiences and in my opinion, is rather difficult, if not dam near and/or absolutely impossible to find, in many areas of this country.

Despite what any Rosy Red eye glass wearing employment consultants, individuals and department of unemployment (Human Resources) agency representatives tell you...(saying all the positives and encouraging words you want to hear)...seniors obtaining employment is very difficult, if not dam near totally impossible.

As the saying goes, "The Truth Always Hurts." The real truth of the matter is, finding work when you’re 55+ years of age isn’t easy! Easy for Human Resource people and everyone else, including family members and friends, to tell you or say to you. They’re job is to encourage you and tell you work is available for you. Reminder Note: They’re all employed.

Use Caution: if you're considering hiring any Head Hunters and/or any professional resume writers. These two can be expensive and a nightmare. Possibly and potentially your worst investment in yourself when seeking employment. If you can’t get a job on your own, then it likely cannot be done. Self reliance is your best investment in yourself. Reinventing yourself to fit into todays job market is required.

Find what you do best or enjoy doing best. Then explore it’s needs in the job market and/or private sector. Fill a need for someone else and you’ve likely found your niche market. Fill that void or do that work for someone else better then the rest and you’ve found your calling or niche market. Market your skills and talents. The rest will all fall into place after wards.

Sincerely and Good Luck.
