Referral goes a long way. And work with solid recruiters. 20% of the recruiters will be good ones, so you may have to be patient to look for those good ones. Good luck!

It is hard as a manager bc you don’t have any experience actually preparing work and at the same time have certain salary requirements.

Any idea what you’re interested in doing? As people above me said reach out to people you know and leverage them first (could try contacting on LinkedIn and setting up a meeting in person / over phone as well). If that isn’t possible move on to a recruiter that specializes in the area you’re interested in. Third, don’t get discouraged it takes most people time to find the right job (salary, etc). Good luck

You can switch firms very easily. Do that first then keep looking for industry.

Just get a recruiter. A manager in public should never have a hard time find a job

Must be the resume. I've gotten calls from Google, Twitter, Netflix...etc

Which location, and which practice? RSM is always looking
