Career Trap : Breaking Through the 10-year Barrier to Get the Job You Really Want

Are you stuck in the "10-year career trap"? You're 35 or older and tired after a decade in one job or industry.

The "trap" comes in two models: you've worked 10 years in an industry and you've plateaued in your job - the higher-ups can't picture you in a more responsible position; or you've worked 10 years in one industry and you are ready to enter a new industry, but interviewers have blinders on and you feel stuck.

This guide shows readers how to overcome the limited perceptions of a boss, interviewers and even themselves.

It shows how to approach career development from a new perspective.

Readers learn how to: leverage and value their own experience, so they can take on a higher or completely new position; and demonstrate to others how valuable their experience is.
