I am 65 years old, in excellent health and anxious to pursue my next career adventure. I have recently relocated to Chattanooga. Am repeatedly being rejected, not even getting to interview for jobs in which I am highly qualified. Any advice?

Maybe you can have someone revuew your resume or simply post it here so we can help on how to improve it. Don't be discouraged, it's just a bit slow this season.

I agree with this too! People here love a good resume review. Share your resume and the positions you're applying for to see if anyone has helpful tips!

Just keep trying, don't give up. The right opportunity will come along. Did you have someone review your resume?

You'll find something. Hiring is slow right now, but you'll find a great opportunity. Do you think you could apply for a more experienced position if you are getting rejected for jobs you're highly qualified for? Just a thought. Wishing you the best!

I would suggest having your resume professionally optimized if you haven't already!

Yeah - take any references as to when you graduated from university off LinkedIn and your CV. Then clip back your job experience to the last 20 years on both. F**k them ageist motherf**kers.

Does anyone here know the process for referrals at meta? I got one recently and an email saying to expect contact in 10-15 days but according to users elsewhere sometimes you don’t hear back or don’t even get an interview and are ghosted.

So, I started watching “Limitless” with Chris Hemsworth. Apparently, he found out he carries both genes for dementia which puts him at a higher risk. So the series is about him changing things in his life for longevity. The third episode is about fasting and he fasts for 4 days until the day he has to hunt for his food. Does anyone in healthcare have thoughts on this type of fasting? I know it is done in some cultures and religions, but to what extent?

Inflation costs are killing my pipeline. Many of my deals are scaling back greatly because of their rising operating costs.

How do we overcome the inflation objection? I mean obviously the answer is to show how much value we offer, but how do we do that when all of the companies we work with barely have enough funding?

They need our services, which is at least some job security, but their scale back is greatly affecting our projections and quota attainment.
