I'm also in the multi-decade range. I've begun dropping my oldest jobs to keep it to 2 pages. This has had three benefits: more space for the relevant positions; I don't get asked about skills I haven't practiced in 20 years; and it makes pre-interview age discrimination a lot harder.
- psyc 5y agoThe age discrimination part is starting to feel like a relevant motivator. I'm increasingly unsure I actually want anybody to know I was a working programmer in the nineteen hundreds. I haven't actually experienced age discrimination yet (I think), but dropping the old jobs feels like good strategic sense.
