Jobless Seniors Often Face Difficult Hiring Prospects
Every year it seems that for older Americans, looking for jobs is more and more difficult. The longer they leave the workforce, the less likely they are to land a job. And this also goes for those who have all the necessary qualifications.
To put it simply, entering the job market is not easy whether or not seniors and even retirees want to. Most of them might be forced to try due to bad financial situations, yet navigating the job market isn’t easy.
Those who had been laid-off in the years running up to retirement have also been forced to dip into their savings before they had initially planned. That’s why, by the time they can access their Social Security funds, they’ll have almost nothing left in the bank anyway.
