]]> Episode 5 of the 50+ Career Renaissance series is live, and this is the one where it all gets practical. 🎙

 

If you’ve been applying on SEEK, Indeed, and LinkedIn Jobs and wondering why you’re getting automated rejections or just… silence, this episode is going to explain exactly what’s happening and what to do instead.

 

Here’s what we cover in Episode 5:

 

  • Where the real opportunities actually are (hint: most of them are never publicly advertised)
  • How to spot a fraudulent job ad before it steals your time, your data, or both
  • What to say in a recruiter screening call so you actually convert to an interview
  • How to show up on screen and in person without looking like you’re applying for your last job
  • Your week-by-week 30-day plan to get genuine traction (not a panic cycle)

 

This is episode five of a five-part series built specifically for mid and senior level professionals over 50. If you haven’t heard episodes one through four yet, go back and listen. The picture I’ve been building across this series is a complete one, and this episode is the final piece.

 

Job searching at this level takes more than a polished CV. It takes strategy, timing, and an honest look at what might be working against you without you knowing it.

 

That’s exactly what this series delivers.

]]> Stop blaming your ag for a moment. What if the real reason recruiters are skipping your profile isn’t your age, but the fact that your digital presence, especially on LinkedIn  looks like a museum exhibit or prehistoric fossil?

In Episode 3 of the 50+ Career Renaissance podcasts series, we’re tackling the LinkedIn  “Fossilisation” trap. Many experienced leaders are effectively invisible to the modern market because they’ve let their LinkedIn profiles become digital statues. You might think you’re playing it safe with that 2019 style resume and corporate jargon, but in reality, you’re strongly signalling to every recruiter and hiring manager that you’ve stopped evolving and your stuck in the past.

We’re digging into the five signs of LinkedIn Fossilisation and show you that your online brand is quietly sabotaging your career from the “invisible” activity feed to the outdated “About” section that reads like a corporate template.

I’m Uli Schild, and I’m here to help you move from being a digital ghost to a high-value commodity. It’s time to breathe life back into your LinkedIn profile and show the market you have a “2026 brain.”

Hiring has shifted — without announcements, conferences, or LinkedIn posts.

If you’re over 50 and have felt ignored, ghosted, or quietly filtered out, this episode matters. Behind closed doors, recruiters and hiring managers are reassessing what really counts: judgment, execution, reliability — not polish.

In Episode 2 of The 50+ Career Renaissance, Uli Schild, a.k.a. MrCareerTick, reveals the silent correction happening across the recruiter and hiring manager desks in Australia and New Zealand—and how you need to reposition yourself for 2026 by translating your experience into hire-ability.

This is not motivation. It’s a practical strategy.

• Hesitation ends here.

• Self-doubt stops now.

• Listen. Act. Follow the series.

Your next career move starts today.

]]> If your funeral were tomorrow, what would people truly say about your work and the legacy you left behind? Here is the sobering reality: On average, only 10 people cry at a funeral. And, the number one factor determining how many people attend your burial is the weather.

Most of us spend our lives striving and holding it all together, only for the weather to be the deciding factor of our final send-off. This realization brings Uli Schild’s Career Funeral Theory into focus: If so few people will care at the end, why do you care so much about what others think while you are living?

This is not a morbid conversation—it’s a high-stakes clarity call for senior professionals.

In this episode, Uli Schild (@MrCareerTick) and change expert Adrienne Tilley-Lefèvre (@thehumansolarpanel) discuss why holding onto a draining job can be self-sabotage, and how to reclaim your purpose.

You will learn how to:

  • Strategically reframe quitting, redundancy, or burnout as the necessary first step toward reinvention.
  • Define the “unfinished business” of your career and create a path that is aligned with who you are, not who others expect you to be.

You are allowed to want more. It’s time to change the story and create a life that fulfills you today.
