I love my job, it seems to love me back (employer and client), and if someone needs work that we are hiring for I'd recommend them (and would like to recommend you if I think you're a good fit).

At the same time, for many years I've had an exercise of creating an updated version of my resume.

This year, I took off my street address (no one needs that, city/state is relevant and enough), debated about taking off my graduation dates (and didn't), and added two very important policy document references for people that do know the field; they will know I do Risk Management Framework and have expertise in cross domain solutions (or at least know how to spell CDS).

I left the dates on because in my summary I mention over 30 years of professional experience (actually it's close to 38). I considered changing this text to "almost four decades," but felt that this aged me too much. If I'm leaving in the 30 years, then I may as well leave in the graduation dates, especially since some are within the last 10 years.

Since I'm not looking, it's not practical to ask a recruiter to review it because then they are going to get the impression that I'm looking when I'm not, and they make their money by getting people hired. That, and my field is kind of niche.

What's a good way to get an objective review of my updated resume without sending out recruiter pheromones?
