Why is it I only seem to get entry-level positions? 😔 I’m 30 years old, 8 years of work experience in my field and yet I only get offers or referred to low entry level jobs by hiring managers and recruiters. Even when I met the requirements for a managerial role! I don’t know how to get out of this loop!

Been through all interviews, recruiter said it's looking good but they would let me know early this week and asked if that works from a timing perspective since they know I was interviewing with someone else also. I said yeah that's fine. Would it be weird to follow up today or should I wait to hear from them? Want this one over the other but don't want to seem desperate..
