Reentering the job market after a long absence can present several challenges, including outdated skills, changing job market conditions, self-doubt, and age discrimination. And, the process for seeking out and interviewing for jobs has changed dramatically. But, don’t be discouraged! Maggie was recently a guest on the Silver Divorce podcast, hosted by Lisa McCluskey. In the episode, Maggie and Lisa discuss:
  • The common barriers for people reentering the job market after a long absence.

  • The first steps to take to reenter the job market after a long absence.

  • How to approach a long absence from the job market in interviews.
