About The Old Man and the CV
From the publisher's feed
Whether you are in or out of work currently, looking for a new role or a different role, slowing down - or speeding up! - then the podcast has lots of insights and information on how to be more…
successful in your quest - whatever direction you are thinking of taking.
Each episode only lasts about ten minutes - the time it takes to make a cup of tea!
Every week a new episode will be released for the aged 50+ professionals who have at one time or another experienced the trials and frustrations of finding a new role after redundancy, looking for a mid-life career change or re-joining the workplace and coming across the silent barrier that is age-discrimination.
The Old Man and the CV is not just for those in this situation currently but others outside it too so that you can understand the frustrations, maybe change how you approach experienced workers in the fifty plus age group, and realise that you will be in this age bracket one day too! Much of the content will resonate as there is always something to learn, whatever your age.
We’ll be speaking to a smorgasbord of guests to enable you to succeed so that this colossal reservoir of talent, knowledge and experience doesn’t go to waste just because you have reached a certain age.
There are four streams that we cover that we'll be mixing up throughout the series.
Stream 1 is practical advice and guidance from experts across HR, execs, agencies, charities, fellow sufferers, and so on.
Stream 2 is about some of the characteristics that you need to succeed such as focus, determination, resilience, optimism, confidence, etc. We’ll be talking to experts in each of these areas, plus others too.
Stream 3 is around supplementary knowledge around nutrition, exercise, mental wellbeing, etc.
Stream 4 are the entertaining and educational pieces just to learn something new, give ideas for conversations and spread some positivity.
Why the name? Well clearly a pun on the Hemingway novella but the main theme of the story clearly resonates. Ergo, Hemingway is making the point that Santiago’s determination and never giving up indicates what kind of human being one can be. But this podcast isn’t just for men obviously!
