Retirees should be paying close attention to the current conversation about women returning to work after a career break, especially through internships. At this point, 13 (mostly) Fortune 500 Task Force-member companies have started (or plan to start) reentry internship programs for returning engineers and IT professionals. The OnRamp Fellowship in law and the nonprofit Path Forward in IT lead group reentry programs involving additional employers. Forward-thinking companies will have career reentry programs in place to make sure they are engaging with their high-performing employees through all their life stages, including post-retirement. (Disclosure: the financial services firms, STEM Reentry Task Force companies, and the Society of Women Engineers work with iRelaunch.)
