For job seekers over 50, today’s job market can feel like unfamiliar territory. With shifting hiring trends, evolving workplace expectations, and an increasing reliance on technology, the job search process looks different than it did even a decade ago. But one thing remains true: experience, strategic thinking, and leadership never go out of style.

I’m Amy Leighton, the founder of Career Resources LLC, and I specialize in helping experienced professionals navigate career transitions with clarity and confidence. I bring nearly 20 years of expertise in career coaching, résumé writing, and job search strategy—helping job seekers communicate their value in ways that resonate with today’s hiring managers.

Like many of my clients, I’ve experienced career reinvention firsthand. After 15 years in human resources and employee benefits compliance, a relocation for my husband’s military assignment forced me to rethink my professional path. That transition led me to résumé writing and career coaching, blending my HR background with a deep understanding of what makes candidates stand out.

Since then, I’ve worked with professionals across industries—including government, lobbying, and mission-driven organizations—helping them refine their career narratives, develop strategic job search plans, and land meaningful roles.

At Career Resources LLC, my approach is straightforward:

• Clarify your goals – Whether you’re looking to stay in your field, pivot, or explore encore careers, we define a strategy that makes sense for you.
• Communicate your value – I help job seekers craft résumés, cover letters, and LinkedIn profiles that highlight their experience in ways that connect with today’s employers.
• Navigate the job search with confidence – From networking strategies to interview preparation, I provide practical guidance so you can move forward with a clear plan.
