Middled aged and want to repatriate

I've been living abroad for 20 years and want to repatriate. I am 57 and don't have a college degree, but have had steady work as a secretary.

I have been looking for a long time -
the closest I ever get to an interview is "Contact us when you've moved back". Seemingly SKYPE interviews are only done in certain situations. I have no family left in the U.S. so I'd be moving back solo.

Wondering if anyone in a similar situation repatriated and how it worked for them. Please feel free to send me an email

You will find it hard to find a job at your age. The US is not very welcoming to people over 50.

Agreed - it's the same in Ireland. Hence the wariness.
