[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. Thanks for the feedback.  I'll give him a little more time.  FTR, he was VP at a large construction firm that went under/reorganized.  He is a registered architect and has worked in both environments.  He has a unique skill set.  We've been together close to 30 years and he's never had an issue finding a job.  In fact, for many of the positions he's held, he was offered the position at the initial interview.

I know it is tough out there for everyone, especially those of us close to 60.  You will just have to take my word for it but my husband looks 45.  He has a full head of hair with no gray and is thin and fit.  He was carded until he was close to 50, not just in places where they card everyone.  He is planning to tailor his resume to look like he is a little younger to fit with his appearance.

We are both realistically concerned because it feels like construction/architecture sucks right now.[/quote]

With all the illegals getting iced, how does your husband expect to find a job? There’s no one available to build anything! If you aren’t in the construction industry, I’d shift perspective and recommend that *you* look for a higher paying job, be dude your husband is going to be out of work for a long while.[/quote]
