According to Kathleen Begley, geezers born between 1945 and 1960 are going to be hot candidates by 2013 because the boomers don't have anyone to replace them.
Why Boomers aren't losers:
Common belief has it that once you're 50 you have a closed mind. Apparently, however, that's not necessarily true.
Workers in their 50s, 60s, and 70s don't need time for child care. But they do want time off for leisure activities. So they might be best as seasonal employees wintering in Florida.
White-collar baby boomers are computer literate. They're just not completely up to date on the latest web 2.0 applications.
GEEZERS YOU SAY!!! I was born in 1959 and probably know more about the web than most of the young folks.
I have more than a dozen of my own websites and blogs and have even built a couple of search engines.
One of them is useful for finding resumes - in fact, it is the only resume search engine that I know of that can pull free resumes from out of the internet!
Go and test it at http://www.cvfox.com and see for yourself.
Geezer!!! HAH!

CFO.com's article, "Baby Boomer Brain Drain Looms," supports the comments made by Kathleen. So do I. Blogged about it at http://blog.cfo-coach.com.
