Dr. David DeLong is an expert in organizational behavior who has studied the challenges aging boomers face in the job market. His recent study, Buddy, Can You Spare a Job, is one of best reports to date on the job market for older Americans.

DeLong talked with Over50andOutofWork.com about five ways older workers can cope with job hunting and the current employment market. Over50andOutofWork is a terrific new online resource produced by journalist Susan M. Sipprelle and her team. The site features interviews with a range of top experts such as DeLong, but also is posting a series of 100 interviews with out-of-work older Americans who discuss their plight.

More to come on Sipprelle and her project, but in the meantime here’s the interview with DeLong.
