Rook, again sorry to hear your story and how you were / are being treated.
Unfortunately I understand how frustrating and draining it can be looking for a new job.
In my late 30's I heard my company was considering offering voluntary redundancies and asked my manager to see if he could sort one for me.
He did and I got a fair some of money.
I had no doubt about my ability to get another similar position elsewhere and never gave it a second thought.
I even thought they'd come knocking on my door.
Man was I wrong.
That 6 month period was one of the most frustrating and disallusioned periods of my life!
First I found I it was no where as easy as I thought it was going to be.
Job vacancy advertisements were getting many many responses and sometimes would not even take your call.
On advertisements where they asked for a covering letter and resume, the vast majority would not follow up.
Then dealing with executive employment agencies was a nightmare.
They promised the world, delivered very little and rarely got back to me.
Then interview after interview with most companies not even having the decency to advise the results.
I truly wondered if I would ever succeed it getting back into the game.
My confidence plummeted and I really started to question myself about my worth.
But I now know that although I initially had misplaced over confidence, I was still a solid candidate for the positions I was applying for and in the end was finally was successful.
Thats where you come in Rook.
I know you are a decent person who would be a great additive for any company, and Im sure you know that as well.
Easy for me to say now, but stay positive, never lose faith in yourself / what you have to offer, and keep at it because to a large extent it is a numbers game.
It was a really average time for me then and it sound like its similar for you now.
As long as you put the effort in you'll be fine.
Again, keep at it, stay strong, never question your own value and don't let the bastards bring you down...
