how to transition
I am over 50. I recently earned my BS in Business with a concentration in HR. I have managed people for the majority of my career. I do not seem to be making any traction in my search for an HR role despite being the front line HR source. I am open to any feedback

Hello Margomaldonado!
Thanks so much for sharing! I’d love to invite you to our new professional profile (which is different than your current community profile) and quick apply feature –– which gives you closer access to recruiters who are actively looking to hire more women.
These features helps you avoid the job application black hole by receiving updates on your application status in real-time and the option to message the company directly after submitting your profile (link below).

Thank you for the feedback. I have been working on my resume limiting experience. I am new to FGB, I appreciated the quick response.

First, it's a really slow market to begin with, which doesn't reflect on your skills at all! Second, make sure your resume is in a contemporary format and remove any dates that indicate your age. Only put the last 10-15 years of experience. Yeah, ageism is illegal. How broad and deep is your professional network? Touch people you haven't connected with in a while and tell them your goals after listening to theirs. there's lots of other good advice on here, too, that's just all I can think of at the moment. Very best wishes for your swift success, but don't be surprised if it takes a little while, either.
