Hi Mayank.
My age is 45 years and total I have 20 years of experience in India and Gulf. I have worked in multiple roles such as Administration/Secretary (2000 to 2012) in India and Heath & Safety Department (2012-till date) in Gulf.
I don’t know in which role I should continue because I have more experience in Administration field but from last 8 years I am not in touch with this field. In Heath & safety job, it is site based job and once the site job finished then again I have to search for job (may be every 2-3 years) so I don’t want to continue in this type of Temporary job.
Another problem is my age i.e. 45 years. I again started looking for administration/secretary job but they need young people (30- Max. 40 yrs).
So I am confused what to do. The age is also a factor of not getting job.
Regards,
Santosh Naidu

Ans: Yes you can certainly get a job. You need to find out the right companies and area of expertise

Ans: It's important to re-look your resume, highlight your achievements and the resultant progress it has brought to your current organisation.

Now, send this redeveloped resume to organisations that need your job profile.

Sooner or later.. Calls will follow! New opportunities will come by!

Ans: Thank you for sharing your age, education and experience! Here are some tips to help you:

You have several career options to explore with science background and experience by considering roles that align with your skills which include job openings such as project management, digital marketing, business analysis, customer service or business consulting. You can search job opportunities online in industries where your skills are transferable, such as healthcare, technology, finance or education to leverage your past experience for a long term career. You may also consider further education to enhance your qualification for the specific roles in your field of interest and focus on finding a job that offers great growth opportunities to work abroad.

Always remember that we are always the same age inside. We should start referring to “age” as “levels” in the corporate sector. “I‘m at level 42” will sound better. Best of luck! Feel free to contact me on Rediff Gurus if you require additional guidance or assistance.
