[quote=Anonymous]- Container Store and Penzey's seem to truly value mid-life employees, and both could be aligned with skills honed from SAH years (organizing, baking, problem-solving) - Add key marketable words to your LinkedIn - with a master's in sociology you very likely have strong communication skills, interpersonal skills, critical thinking. Update profile to say you're looking for work. Staffing companies will reach out - their positions are often a good foot in the door even if you're giving a cut to them for the duration of contract, you could be hired permanently by client. Some may be call-center type work where a good phone manner is obviously a huge asset. - Don't get sucked into MLM or devil corp situations! - The hardest thing I found was streamlining my resume so it fit into the automated forms. Reach out to a friend in HR for some tips there. GL OP! Rooting for you.[/quote]
