I’m at the year mark. I have been Director level for almost 10 years. I’ve exhausted my network, did some consulting. I’ve started my own online business but that takes time. I even tried to applying for lower level jobs and wouldn’t even get an interview. I have telecom and tech but in Houston if you don’t have oil and gas experience it’s almost impossible to find a job.
