Carly Ruskowski: 作为AARP的代表，我指出，越来越多的50岁以上员工计划在今年更换工作，这一比例达到了十年来的最高点。然而，令人担忧的是，大多数人并没有为这一转变做好充分的准备。许多年长的员工可能已经有十几年甚至更长时间没有更换工作了，因此他们可能不熟悉当前的求职环境和所需的技能。这使得他们面临更大的挑战，需要及时更新知识和技能，以适应新的工作需求。 Mitchell Hartman: 我强调了在当前求职环境中，优化简历以通过自动追踪系统的重要性。建议求职者使用现代化的数字地址，如电子邮件和专业的网站链接，并避免在简历中包含过时的信息，如几十年前的毕业日期和工作经历。此外，我还强调了人脉的重要性，建议求职者积极利用LinkedIn等平台建立和维护职业关系，以便在求职过程中获得更多的机会和支持。这些策略旨在帮助年长的求职者更好地适应数字化时代，提高求职成功率。 Peter Capelli: 我建议求职者采取更为个性化的求职方式，例如直接写信给潜在的雇主，或者通过熟人介绍来绕过传统的招聘流程。通过人脉关系，求职者可以更容易地获得面试机会，并向雇主展示自己的独特价值。这种方法尤其适用于那些在特定行业或领域拥有丰富经验的年长求职者，他们可以通过人脉网络找到更适合自己的职位，并获得更好的职业发展机会。
