GF is a 45 y/o HR VP laid off in 2019- all the accolades in the world, prestigious prev. employers, high profile references, etc. etc I have listened to her screening calls over and over, final interviews etc. etc, always strong, gets good conversation going- then nothing. Been 2 years.
Always a stupid reason she lost it, sometimes it's comical. Only thing I can ascertain is age.

I feel like I’m the same boat as your GF. I’m 46 years old, soon to be 47 at end of month and was part of work force reduction at a major computer company after being there 23yrs. I’ve had trouble just getting interviews for jobs that was perfectly qualified or even over qualified for. It’s been hard and after 2yrs and 6 months I received my first job offer and looking forward to start working again very soon.
