Since moving to Connecticut a year ago, I’ve been teaching a class I designed:  “Boomers Back to Work!” Geared for what I like to call the “mature” worker, one of the key points I make is how important it is to include others in your search. For one thing, when we’re looking for work, it’s easy to get discouraged. For another, we lose perspective. And in addition, we need ideas from others to keep our search campaigns fresh and effective. I tell my class, if you don’t remember anything else, please keep in mind you’ll do much better if you’re reaching out to others for advice, connections, interview practice, sharing your list of target companies, and so on. Job search is not a loner’s game.
