Overcoming Ageism in Your Job Search

*This event is in person at Stavros Niarchos Foundation Library, 1st Floor Corner Space

Join us for an in-person workshop led by Amy Geffen of Geffen Careers, who will discuss ageism and how it impacts the 55+ job seekers. Learn about strategies to avoid being out of touch by evaluating energy level, technology skills, creativity, and innovation; plus what to say and avoid in your resume. You will also learn how to update your LinkedIn profile, how to update your skills you need to know for the job, and how to illustrate how you are qualified for a role.
