[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went back to work in my early 50’s [b]after 20 years as SAHM. I got a job in the same sector as I was in when I left. It was all about keeping up connections[/b] with people and keeping up with my skills in a volunteer capacity. And luck—job opening at the right time and running into someone that could get me in by chance. Didn’t have luck with LinkedIn or Indeed or anything like that.[/quote] I don’t see how you maintain work connections over the course of 20 years when you aren’t working. I assume most people have a network that includes people older who would retire. 20 years is a long long time. I’d struggle what to even share or talk about professionally after not working even 5 years. Your situation seems like an outlier. [/quote]
