Here's why I need to win a Total Career Makeover!
In December 2009, during my 10th year and late in my career, my former employer off-shored my position along with three other mainframe network systems programmers. The current reduction in force of US employees from my group has grown to about fifteen, almost half the team. Although I had good bi-annual reviews, I failed to aggressively network outside of my sphere. Settling for status quo and "out of loyalty", I failed to bid on new opportunities to move into growing corporate areas. Afterwards, applying for many opportunities based on my extensive institution expertise, I had only two interviews for positions that were filled internally.
My aggressive search, especially through LinkedIn, in the North-East, finds at most one opening as mainframe network systems programmer per month. Weekly, I find one or two somewhat related opportunities. I average about two hiring manager phone screens/interviews per month.
My plan B is to consult for companies on Internet marketing strategy planning and social media because I have honed my skills by taking classes. I had one major assignment so far from 8/2010-3/2011.
Your consideration is appreciated and please connect with me. Check out my G+ with some new interesting photos.
