Introduction

I have been a management consultant for more than 20 years. About 80% of my assignments have been sub-contracts and rest have been self generated. My best prime contractor retired last year so finding projects is now more important than ever. The market is changing and I have learned some things. This blog is my place to share them.

The target audience for this blog is people at or above 55 years of age who are looking for jobs that pay $55 dollars an hour or more: north of 55. There are certainly other types of jobs out there, that's just not my area of expertise. A second target audience is recruiters and corporations looking to hire people in this category.

You may be in the target audience by choice or circumstances, you may be just 55 or well north of it already drawing social security and medicare. You may be looking for a job because you need it or because you find working rewarding. You may be looking for full time, part time or intermittent -- work a while and then travel a while. You may be new to contracting or an old hand at it. Welcome.
