Thanks for the help, Lisa - the funny thing is that, the whole time I've been in marketing, I've ended up being the IT guy at the same time - software/hardware installs and upgrades, wired and wireless networking, application troubleshooting - there wasn't much development, but I did make several convoluted spreadsheets (with VBA macros) as well as several Access DBs.

The more I read these replies, and the more I look at the landscape, the more I realize I need to spend some quality time honing my resume to, as best as I can, highlight the IT elements - at least it wouldn't look like I've been out of the game for as long as I have.

I keep sending resumes to recruiters, but the few that do reply all say the same thing - that it will be hard to place me without more recent experience, so it's off to the charities I go!

(I don't suppose the recruiter that helped you out is local to the Philly area...?) 🙂
