It is all new to me...
I am re-entering the work force after having been a caregiver for family members the past 8 years. I was a womens active wear clothing store assistant manager in my last job. I have 15+ years experience in retail with 7 of those years in management. I realize retail has shifted from brick and mortar stores to online stores. However, there are still businesses out there. What I have discovered is now a days your resume goes through an algorithm and that determines whether or not you have the qualifications for a position. Then there are the assessments, these assessments determine whether or not you're a good fit for the company, or simply are trustworthy. There are many different types of assessments. My resume doesn't even get through the algorithm so it never gets to the hiring manager or HR desk. I get a computer generated response stating we are unable to offer you a position at this time. There is no human contact whatsoever. The job I was offered was aware of my salary requirements during the interview however when the job was offered the salary was substantially less. I am not going to take a store manager position at a wage that would be little above minimum after paying into a medical benefit package or agree to a potential bonus based on credit card application for a lesser wage. That would be under selling myself and my ability. I realize it is a different marketplace these days however I have many years of experience. My guess is, it is my age. I am 55 year young and I will be an empty nester next year. I have a lot to offer if I could only get the chance to interview.
Soo should I send u my resume?
I know I have been a stay at home mom but I recently left my husband and need a place for me and my ten year old last child at home but I was in management for three years opened stores and ran old ones you would think I am at least qualified to flip a hamburger but this online has been a nightmare for me I worked for dominos pizza I probably know more than any one in their store I don't understand
