 Company got bought, been there 10 years and wow the job market has changed for the worse in nearly every way. Any tips for a 40-something IT manager? i'm a bit baffled as to where to go from here as Linkedin is a cesspool and Indeed doesn't understand the words you put in search

I think you should better understand what you want out of your next role. Are you looking for an anyjob? Then you probably want to go for a high volume, high rejection strategy.

Or maybe you want to take this opportunity to refocus your direction and specialize? Then focus your energy on creating a specific narrative for a role and apply ONLY for those jobs that are a good fit.

e: taking the discussion to a different thread might be more appropriate: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3607482
