I could use a resume review.
I'm a security architect in the public sector, state government. I started as an entry level sysadmin around 2000. I'm being strongly encouraged to apply for the CISO position here. I'm 46, and currently lead a team of 3.
Every time I apply for the private sector, including lower level jobs, it's crickets. If I apply for govt work, I get people banging on my door.
How do I get a resume review, or someone to point out what I need to make the jump from govt to private sector?
