Social Work Today, July 10, 2016
Are you ‘over-qualified’ and over 40+ in the current job market today? You’re not alone! Guest Patricia Wowk comes back to revisit the state of unemployment for older people and her own job search. Older people who are unemployed represent the largest demographic in the country and still need to work because they can’t afford to retire. This is happening to 1,000’s of women and men 40+ of all races and ethnicities all over the country. Yes, white people, as well as those of color.
