We have put together a series of articles to help older workers and those looking to employ older workers. We will be expanding this content as the site progresses, but in the meantime, we hope you find the following articles useful.

• Training
  
  Currently under development, this page will include up to date information on training and personal development for older workers.
  
  
• What does a good CV look like?
  
  Your CV is the tool you use to get you an interview and its importance cannot be underestimated. It is what the employer uses to make a ‘first impression’ of you that will hopefully get you to the next stage of getting a job.
  
  
• Writing age friendly job adverts
  
  Remember in the current skill and labour supply shortage you are competing for staff as well as business. Your job ad should provide enough information to attract the interest of the jobseeker.
  
  
• How to conduct an age friendly interview
  

  Interviews are nerve racking at the best of times, however if you haven’t had an interview for a while or had quite a few knock backs (which is often the case with older workers) then they can be simply terrifying. It goes without saying that you won’t get the best in an interview situation from someone who is terrified.

• Free Office Skill Tests
  

  Test your office skills, including the Microsoft Office Suite, Project Management, Time Management, Presentation Skills and Negotiation Skills.
  

• Useful Links
  

  We are collating a list of useful links for older workers. Please keep coming back to this page as we further develop the list, and if you have any great links to might be useful to our users, please use the contact form to send them to us.
