When I started looking for a new job, the consultant I was working with parsed my cv down to the last 15 years of experience. I also amended my LinkedIn page to reflect my current cv.
What I was doing before that is largely irrelevant unless I have a many page cv full of incredible accomplishments. Keep it simple and no one will know your as old as their parents...
