I have more than 30 years of experience in the same industry doing pretty much the same kinds of jobs. I’ve been at the same company for 12 years now and am working up a résumé to send out. I haven’t created one since my first years out of school; it’s all been word-of-mouth employment opportunities. Since I’ve been at this last company for over 10 years, should I list out anything prior if it’s the same type of roles? Any suggestions on a better format for over 50?

It depends on what it is but if long experience is relevant, list it out. I have 25 years’ experience in my line of work and overall it helps

Then boom... six weeks of silence vague texts from hiring manager they were still going thru the process..

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback.

I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)

Yesterday my younger brother called me looking for good hidden swimming spots in the mountains. He was up there with a bunch of friends and their original plans had fallen apart hard. And I go much more often than he does.

Reply? Forget it, I'm all set.

Yep, 10 mins is too long. Here I was expecting "Wow! That's fantastic!" How silly of me.
