I am unemployed as an executive level manager in F & B. I have applied for 200+ jobs since JAN. Very few responses and interviews. I have gotten great feedback from phone interviews with both HR and recruiters, then nothing. I follow up with them and still hear nothing. I have a feeling that my former employer may be giving out negative information (one instance for sure). I feel like a victim of agism, as I am senior level executive. Any advise on moving forward?

It might not even be your prior employer. It’s probably a combination of age discrimination and also that the industry is flooded by people looking for jobs. Are you willing to work for less or do you want to stay your current level? Are you willing to relocate? It’s a terrible market in general… good luck!

I work as an AGM in a busy restaurant. Been working there for just over a year, and haven't had a single raise.

Should I try to negotiate a raise or look for other opportunities?

If I should negotiate, any tips?
