I am a mid-career senior manager/executive in the supply chain field,
with 22 years of experience in varied and progressive roles. I am
struggling with my job search, having applied to numerous job postings
on various job sites with no callbacks. I had my resume done
professionally done thinking that this might help including the cover
letter. I modify the cover letter to suit the position.

I am starting to think that the problems could be I am perhaps
overqualified for the companies I am applying to; am faced with subtle
age discrimination or my resume just isn't getting the job done.

I am looking for advice on a different strategy and approach because
what I am doing is not working.

Thanks,
