Dear Liz,I use the LinkedIn headline “Experienced Enterprise Software PM Seeking New Challenge” and it gets me a decent number of inquiries from corporate recruiters and headhunters. Because I say flat out in my LinkedIn headline that I’m job-hunting, everybody assumes (correctly) that I’m unemployed, and they assume (incorrectly) that I will take any job at any salary they offer me. I earned $120K in my last job and I am fairly flexible now down to about $100K. The recruiters who have contacted me so far are all offering jobs in the $70 – $80K range. I’m not desperate because I have two small, ongoing consulting projects but I would rather work on a team.
