  I made a career change at 54. I lost my job in Feb and it took four months to find a job. I got the one I wanted, but not after starting another one first. I am still getting rejection letters and offers from jobs I applied for in March and April.
  I applied for the one I wanted in May and I don't even start until Aug 24th.
  I used Indeed and Zip Recruiter as well as going to most companied "career" page. I found agencies to be a colossal waste of time. I had one ask if I wanted remote work. I do building maintenance.
  So many of them I applied for had to be fake postings or jobs that were never going to be filled by an applicant.

  • Must be pretty tough to get a job in the creative fields at age 54. Or most jobs these days. Good luck.NBQ00
