That doesn’t mean leaving dates off your resume to appear less old, according to Shelley Radinsky of 
T & S Recruiting near Philadelphia.  She relates:  “I think you should be proud of every bit of experience you have and “If you go in there confident, that will come across.”

  1. Focus on Your Value
  2. Find the Right Fit
  3. Staying Current
