Good career websites that focus on baby boomers are few and far between. Recently, Hannah Morgan, The Career Sherpa, published her list of the Best Job Search Websites 2015.
Of course, Career Pivot made the list in the over 50 category. There was only one other website in that category, Kerry Hannon’s website. Kerry regularly writes for Forbes, AARP, and PBS Next Avenue.
Top 8 Baby Boomer Career Websites
1 – Career Pivot
Okay, I am being self serving, but Career Pivot is the only website that has made just about every list.
2 – Next Avenue
NextAvenue.org is owned by PBS. This website was launched in 2012 to serve the baby boomer community exclusively. It focuses on many issues that baby boomers are facing, not just career-related.
3 – Life Reimagined
Life Reimagined was launched by AARP starting in 2012 and relaunched in 2014. AARP is very late to the career market, but is making a good effort to address the needs of the baby boomer community.
4 – Kerry Hannon
KerryHannon.com is a place where you will find all of Kerry’s materials. Kerry writes for Forbes, AARP, and PBS Next Avenue. You might say that Kerry is a pioneer in this field.
5 – My Lifestyle Career
MyLifeStyleCareer.com is a creation of Nancy Collamer. Nancy is the author of Second-Act Careers: 50+ Ways to Profit from Your Passions During Semi-Retirement. What I love about Nancy’s book is that it lays your possibilities out in bite size chunks that are easily digestible. Her blog is full of great ideas.
6 – Encore.org
Encore.org was created prior to the onset of the Great Recession. Their mission statement says it all:
Encore.org is building a movement to tap the skills and experience of those in midlife and beyond to improve communities and the world.
