What's the most depressing thing about this important article on Forbes? Zero comments. Teresa Ghilarducci from The New School rips the scab off the widespread denial regarding the very real retirement crisis. Maybe people think it doesn't apply to them. sbee.link/eh64judn8t

The Looming Retirement Crisis Is Real And So Are The Solutions
There’s no shortage of turmoil around Social Security and retirement security these days. If you listen to Americans—Republicans, Democrats, the rich, the poor, the very online and the very offline—you’ll hear one consistent refrain: financial securi

The answer isn't more AI, it's more personal contact. Consider doing more cold outreach on LinkedIn where you believe you'd be a good fit, even if there's no current job opening. Maybe they'll respond because they realize they need you - if not today, then tomorrow. sbee.link/gejuvcakw3

Can't get hired for a job? It's time to apply like it's 1999.
In a hiring process exhausted by AI, it's time to apply to jobs like it's 1999. Old-school paper resumes and in-person interviews are back.

Everyone is on the short end of the career stick in this year's economy. What are you going to do about it? Entry level: Dial down the idealism . Mid-level: Go growth mindset. Use your network. Senior-level: Be more of a consultant, mentor, advisor, strategist. sbee.link/x3hd4a9vgq?

Moving the performance review goalposts. What BS. Sounds like a deliberate effort to undermine and marginalize workers so that they can never find jobs again and be permanently removed from the workforce. Am I right? sbee.link/fb7j649xuc

It's a war on employees. There's just no other way to put it. A pure slash-and-burn campaign to decimate the workforce and, one must think, to pave the way for increasing automation and AI adoption to further shrink headcount. sbee.link/mvfe6wpuja

Are you being formally (and secretly) blocked from a company for being too old? I wonder about how so-called Block Lists" are affecting older workers in the job marketplace. What are your thoughts? What have you heard? sbee.link/uhvt8q9xck

We uncovered Meta's 'block lists.' It turns out a lot more companies have them, too.
Workers across industries report being unknowingly blocked from being rehired by their former employers, sometimes for years.
