RetiredBrains.com Connects Seniors with Employers Seeking Their Experience & Work Ethic

The RetiredBrains suite of sites provides a venue for employers to reach seniors, retirees and people about to retire who are interested in continuing to work


Everyday, 10,000 Americans turn 55. Tapping into the strengths of these older workers is an excellent way to save on training and benefits costs.

All the research shows that more and more retiring seniors are looking for work and each year more people are retiring. Many employers have found that hiring experienced seniors represents a big time savings as the amount of training to make this group effective in their work is a great deal less and, of course, there are substantial savings with regard to benefits.

The suite of sites that point to www.RetiredBrains.com includes:

www.jobsinretirement.com        www.careers4retirement.com
www.careersinretirement.com www.workafterretirement.com
www.workinretirement.com    ; www.retireandwork.com
www.goldenyearscareers.com    
www.after55Jobs.com
www.4seniorworkers.com        ; www.jobs4seniors.com
www.4retiredworkers.com        ; www.4retiredexecutives.com

There is no cost to view jobs or post a resume to this suite of sites. There is also no cost for employers to post their openings. The sites are powered by Artemis HR which currently receives almost 3 million unique visitors a month to its 4Jobs Network.


A growing experienced labor pool.

According to AARP 8 out of 10 baby boomers
say they plan to work in retirement.

Why recruit retired workers?

From Tapping the Mature Workforce: An Overview & Recommendations By Helen Foster, Mature Market Group

Quality customer service experience
Stability
Ability to initiate sales and transaction dependability
Eagerness to provide support and guidance
Superior communication skills
Varied work experience
Better ability to work with mature clientele
An old-fashioned work ethic

Recent studies conducted by AARP and reports published by The United States General Accounting Office identify the mature employees greatest assets (compared to younger demographics) as:
Lower absenteeism
Punctuality
Less likelihood to change jobs   
Commitment to quality
Superior customer service skills   
Better people skills
More eager to learn new skills   
Positive attitude


Why is there a need for a venue specifically designed to reach retired and retiring seniors?

Seniors generally will not apply for positions open to the general population because they fear they will not be considered for the jobs because of age discrimination. They also wrongly feel that their skills and abilities do not qualify them for many of the employment opportunities currently offered.

Employers wishing to take advantage of the experience and reliability that retired people or seniors provide must communicate to this group that they are specifically targeting them for employment. The www.RetiredBrains.com suite of sites does exactly that.
