Sure, retirement is a time to relax and enjoy a more leisurely lifestyle. BUT, there are also many retirees who feel restless and ready for a new challenge. That’s because – as humans – we’re designed to grow and develop at every life stage.
If you’re in the latter group, who’s craving growth and challenges, you may be wondering how and why to find a job after retirement.
Here are the 5 steps to finding a job after retirement:
#1 Get clear on what you want (there’s more than meets the eye)
#2 List your skills & qualities (but not to confine yourself to this list)
#3 Reach out to your network (even if looking for a totally new role)
#4 Tailor your resume & cover letter
#5 Be consistent, open-minded & patient
A retirement job is a completely new and different opportunity than a career job.
Why look for a job after retirement?
It can provide structure and routine, social interaction, and – if you do it right – a sense of purpose. Find a job that’s aligned with your retirement passions, and you’ll not only stave off boredom, but you’ll also keep your mind sharp and overall well-being vibrant and healthy.
So if you’re ready for a new challenge, start looking for the right retirement job opportunities.
