New Year: New Job- Avoiding Age Discrimination in the Job Search

Wednesday, April 712:00—1:30 PMOnlineMain Library82 Main Street, Peabody, MA, 01960

Baby Boomers and older adults often worry about age discrimination when seeking new employment, spending an inordinate amount of time convincing themselves that they are no longer relevant in the workforce.  Join us for a free workshop with employment specialist and career coach, Gary Gekow to learn how job seekers can overcome age bias and turn their fears into selling points to be successful in their job search.  This virtual workshop will be offered via Zoom and is part of our New Year: New Job series.  It is free and open to the public but space is limited and registration is required.  Register here!

Learn more about the instructor:  Gary Gekow is a senior employment specialist, career coach, and owner of Resume Your Career.  He has 30 years of recruiting and employment services experience in the New England staffing industry.  He partners with job seekers from the Greater Boston area across a wide range of specialties and assists with a variety of employment search strategies including resume creation, interview coaching, LinkedIn profile branding and career counseling.  

This program is made possible through CARES Act funding to Federal Institute of Museum and Library Services as administered by the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners.
