[quote=Anonymous]Spouse laid off at 60, from a well paying job. Took 9 months, but was hired for a better job. Network, network, network. The economy was better then (2018 maybe 2019), but my office has made 2 hires recently that we didn't even advertise. Because when you do post a job, you get over a thousand of candidates who don't come close to your qualifications, have no experience, and based on their resumes, didn't even look at the job, just clicked and submitted. So my suggestion, based on spouses experience, is to tell everyone you know that you are looking. The parents on your kids sport team, at church, wherever you volunteer or are part of some group, because today, that is how you get a job[/quote]
