I have 16 yrs of experience after 10 yrs of being in the same firm I wish to move now. But my job applications are a bit rusty (doesn't seem to work out).

What strategies do you employ while job hunting?

It will take some patience and efforts.
First make a new resume. Check out different sites as to what’s a newer format of resume currently for your profile.
Try to have two three different resumes made
Update your LinkedIn profile with new DP and properly documented bio and experience info
Then make a list of the companies your are interested to work in
Contact your network
See who’s doing what .. what’s the latest in terms of required skills etc
Seek referral
Give mock interviews to see what are your weak points
You’ve been in the same place for 10 years
So you’ll need to understand what is the current skills required, what are the salaries being offered for your profile
What are companies looking for in people with your experience
All the best

Ok I have done some of thrn as a beginner
Created a new visual resume and have been applying on the portals. I do have a network in LinkedIn now how would you ask for a referral there. My salary is 37lakhs perannum and I feel I am not getting calls or responses due to this.

That yelps a lot thank you

Hi - hoping to get some insight/advice. I’ve been in house at a large private company for a year in a general corporate role (governance, M&A, etc.).

There’s also just not enough hours in the day to get my work done. Is it like that everywhere?
