1) Finance 51yo, apply for job, previously a finance manager, quickly got offer and took it

2) HR 53yo, can't along with boss, decided to apply for job and had to take pay cut, managed to find job

3) Marketing 51yo, can't find job at all, apply took pay cut also cannot find. In the end friend recommendation helped to find job.

So in conclusion, among the 3 fields.

Is finance still marketable at 51yo ?

What about Marketing? seems very tough environment once they are in 50s, because they tell me a lot of marketing competition from younger people and barriers to entry is very low due to anyone can become marketing manager.

There is very few people will resign at this level or with such age.

Unless you look for lower position or pay cut.

At such age, you hold for the position till 55 for the EPF. The high salary and compounding will accelerate your EPF money fast. For those who know how to calc.
