Times can be very tough in today's job market, particularly
when working in volatile sectors such
as IT. When one's age ratchets above 50 the going can become tougher
to find a new job, recruitment agents do not want to know you anymore
because you are a tougher sell.
With a lifetime
of experience to offer can be very frustrating to suffer rejection
and simply no response to your CV, which at one time had the
headhunters salivating.
The biggest
issue that we all face is that we often know some of the theory
of how to get a new job, but are weak in implementation.
I thought
that my CV was great. How wrong I was!
