For older workers in job hunt, be sure to dress well
By MARVIN WALBERG, Scripps Howard News Service
Dear Mr. Walberg:
I have been looking for a clerical or an administrative job for well over a year now. I am 61 and feel I make a good impression on interviews, however I think that when employers look at my age they think they'll have to pay me too much. Do you have any ideas for me? -- Email from B.C.
Dear B.C.:
Relocating without a job
By MARVIN WALBERG, Scripps Howard News Service
Dear Mr. Walberg:
I am living in the Boston area and my fiance lives in Chicago, so my goal is to relocate and get established in my career at least six months before the wedding. Any advice you have for relocating without any job prospects would be appreciated.
-- L.G.
Dear L.G.:
Whew! I was afraid there for a moment you were going to ask for marriage advice.
