raydee8_love Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 I have been busy reading many of the threads, learning from other peoples experiences. Now I have another question about job interviews. I am trying to re-enter the job force after spending most of my life taking care of family, that puts me on the wrong side of middle age and a giant gap in paid work history. I have read some other threads about this but I am kinda stuck between which would be better Heat & Soul or Popularity Potion? Do I want to be popular, or do I want to be someone who can be trusted. Am I too old to be a shining star, would I be better off seen as someone who is a supporting player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SugarKitten Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Welcome to the forum! I think the other members would be better suited to answer your questions, but I'd say one is never too old to be a shining star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't sell yourself short, managing a home and family uses some of the same skills as managing a business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have over 20+ years of all kinds of volunteer work also ... everything from river clean ups, treasurer for groups, I started a baby sitting coop and planning community events. I was told by a recruiter that I can't use any of that - she said, "no one knows if volunteers really work" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of what you listed should be verifiable by a prospective employer. It sounds like you have quite a few skills that could be played up in an interview. Maybe try listing them and have someone do a mock interview with you? SWS is great for that "I'm competent and confident" vibe that gets respect in the workplace. Good luck and I hope you'll let us know how it goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
