Se você já possui uma trajetória sólida, não é necessário incluir todas as suas experiências no currículo. Priorize as mais relevantes, destacando os resultados, as principais atividades e utilizando palavras-chave da sua área de atuação.

DON'T include these things in your resume: • Double (instead of single) spacing between sentences, like you learned in typing class way back when • A wide left margin with the rest of the content squeezed into what's left of the space, leaving little white space • Your street address in the contact info at the top • An email address that indicates when you were born An ancient email account provider (like HotMail, AOL, or Yahoo) in your contact information • An objective statement • Outdated, irrelevant certifications and training But DO add in: • Links to your social media accounts or other relevant online content • Personal branding throughout, not just one brand statement

Emphasize your problem solving skills and position yourself as the SME that is called in when their new younger and cheaper recruits inevitably screw up.

I agree that going with chronological order in listing the expertise might not be the best way of your experience. What I like the most when the candidate tailor their CV to the job they are interviewing for. Sharing a template CV for all jobs is not the most efficient way of applying for a job and might get the candidate eliminated, unnecessarily

Focus on Skills and Achievements: Highlight your accomplishments, showcasing skills that are sought after in your industry. Show recent courses, certifications, and training to confirms that you are in touch with new technologies or methodologies. Seek professional help to create a neat and contemporary resume format. Keep your focus on the recent years of your career journey for clarity. Customize your resume to align with the specific needs of the job. Boast your familiarity with IT related tools, software, and platforms to highlight your Tech illiteracy. Remember with age comes experience - the crown you possess. Good Luck.

I disagree with the functional resume format recommendation. Unless the individual is attempting to cover gaps in employment, where a Combination style resume would work best, I advise all candidates with continuous employment to use a chronological resume. Utilize the summary area to highlight subject matter expertise and relevant experience over the last 10 - 15 years. This gives the employer exactly what they are asking for and maybe a little more to show they are a qualified candidate. I also advise removing dates from education over 5 years old. Maintain relevant credentials to show continuous education in the relevant fields. I also advise using Arial font, 10pt, with .5” margins. Also, no need to label email and phone number.

We wish we could say "age doesn't make a difference", but it does. However, if you have skills that are up to date to what the market is looking for and you have accomplishments to show, then you become more marketable. It isn't about your resume as much as the relationships you have with people who are working for companies you would like to target and jobs where you are qualifed. You do need a resume and by creating a hybrid format with your skills on the top highlighted with accomplishments, the focus will be on what you have to offer and not how long you might have been at a company. Do you need to update your image or have an attitude adjusment because even though you might be experiencing age bias, you don't want to show it!

Whether young or more mature, what makes resumes stand out is the achievements or contributions you have made in your various roles. You don't need to go back and explain in detail what you did more than 10 years ago! Instead, summarise earlier years and concentrate on recent roles and the difference you made, always tailoring your resume to the roles. Try to quantify the achievements where possible and discuss the impact. I don't believe in omitting early roles, the company name and role you held is enough unless there is something that really stands out. Unfortunately, age discrimination is still prevalent, but if a company is unwilling to consider your application because you're considered too old, would you want to work with them?
