Alaska, Hawai’i and the Baby Boomer
2009 marks the 50th anniversary of Alaska and Hawai’i being admitted to the union. That just blows my mind. It is hard to imagine only 48 stars on the flag, yet that is what baby boomers grew up knowing. I will admit, I find American history very interesting, so the process of states being admitted to the union is fascinating to me.
What seems normal and commonplace to us now will seem strange to the next generation. Just as my generation has always known a country with 50 states, searching for a job on the internet and networking through social media sites will be normal for the next generation.
Gone are the days when you could pick up a paper and flip to the help wanted section to find a job. That is where WiserWorker.com can help. We have job postings that contain companies looking to hire the mature worker.
Soon we will be making changes to the site to improve the job seeking experience. Some changes will be cosmetic (bigger font, more audio features). Some will be more substantial like making it easier to navigate the site.
Like they always say “Times they are a changing”
What changes would you like to see made to our site. Take our survey and let us know what you think. http://www.wiserworker.com/survey.
