[quote=Anonymous]I was just laid off my job that I have had for the past 14 years. The past 3 1/2 years I had been working part time after the birth of my child and I got laid off due to lack of work and a not very family friendly boss. So I now need to get back into the job market and look for another part time job which I know won't be easy. I'm 47 and haven't had to put a resume together for 14 years and am a little intimidated on how job searches are done these days. I plan on writing a new résumé but how do people find jobs these days? I was planning on mailing (snail) cover letters with my résumé. Is this an old fashioned way of doing this? I plan on contacting folks I know in my field and in my network but can anyone advise me on anything else I should be doing? Also, has resume writing changed in the past 14 years? Gosh, I feel like a dinosaur! Thanks![/quote]
