Ask HN: Does last job experience 4 years ago make my application unattractive?
2 by inlineint | 6 comments on Hacker News.
I am looking for a job as a software engineer. I have more than 6 years of experience, but in my résumé the last job experience as a software enginer (in particular, senior software engineer) is 4 years ago. I am applying to all kinds of roles, but no company invites me to an interview. How can I work around this? It looks like a vicious circle. I need a more recent job experience to be hireable, but I cannot get one. My field is backend development, so my knowledge should not be really outdated.
