Older workers looking more glamorous to recruiters

AARP http://www.aarp.org/ is adding three federal government agencies and six private companies to its list of employers looking to hire people 50 and older for full-time, part-time and seasonal jobs.

The Internal Revenue Service, the Peace Corps and the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Office of Disaster Relief are the newest members and the first federal employers on AARP’s National Employer Team. That brings the total number of employers in the three-year-old partnership to 38, said Deborah Russell, director of work-force issues for AARP in Washington, D.C.
