I need some advice on what levels of seniority of job to apply for. I used to have a mid ranking level job in a media industry before being made redundant while on maternity leave eight years ago. I have freelanced on a very part time basis since then.
I don't enjoy freelancing and work is increasingly hard to come by so am looking for work.
I am lacking managerial experience and project management experience (that would have been the next step had I stayed in full time work) so can't apply for managerial work. But I am not getting interviews for the next level down (senior officer style roles) which I presume is down to being out of the market so long; the industry has changed hugely in the last eight years.
Is there any point in me applying for jobs that are one level about graduate entry? I am in my early 40s and would be going up against people on perhaps their second job after uni.
