The Silver Tsunami is sending millions of retirees back to work - thin savings, delayed pensions, and a stalled job market leave little choice. They land in a hiring system where AI-powered ATS filters, an AI fluency gap, and ageism screen them out before a human sees their 30+ years of experience. But the same technology can flip the script: AI tools can reformat resumes to clear ATS filters, match deep experience to the right roles, and close the fluency gap. The move is to compete on accumulated expertise AI can't replicate - and use AI as the equalizer to get back in.
