About OurExperienceCounts.com
OurExperienceCounts.com is an online community dedicated to providing the tools and support necessary for mature, experienced workers to extend their careers or make a career transition. By providing tools specific to the needs of the experienced worker, we enable them to compete successfully in a job market that often chooses youth over experience.
As our economy seeks to throw off the chains of a recession that has impacted all of us, companies require the expertise and wisdom that come with experience to develop and execute new or modified business plans. Experience will be at a premium, but technology has also brought changes to the job search process since many of us last needed to seek employment. Without proper guidance and support, it will be extremely difficult for candidates to develop the personal marketing plan necessary to clearly define how their experience and past successes translate into the talents potential employers are seeking.
The OurExperienceCounts.com Mission
There are many websites where a job seeker can search through thousands of opportunities. Some of these websites will write you a template-based resume for anywhere from $199-$399. There are even websites that specialize in opportunities for mature workers. The mission of OurExperienceCounts.com is to provide no cost/low cost training that will empower mature workers to become their own best career coaches. Workshops and insightful articles will prepare them:
- To write flexible “star” based resumes, with keyword phrasing that can be targeted to each opportunity.
- To increase their potential opportunities by engaging in proven networking techniques.
- To answer those tough questions while engaged in informational, phone or live interviews.
- To understand what makes sense and what is just a waste of time and money when working with an internet job board.
- To successfully negotiate that new salary and benefits.
- To engage in a career transition if you believe it’s time to start your own business or change your job description.
The job search challenges faced by more experienced, mature workers are quite different than those of younger job seekers. In order to compete, we must learn to successfully market ourselves, because our experience counts!
