Sorry, 13 years only job. Good luck on your next job. I learned later in life, never burn bridges as references are very important ( no matter how shit , and annoying they are )and much needed in decent jobs. Last 2 jobs, one offered me more money to stay (gave them 2 months notice and offered to stay till they find a suitable replacement. Even told me to come back if things do not work out) The other one, explained my reasons for leaving and gave 2 weeks notice. They also, offered me my job back if things did not work out.
So, pays to leave on good terms I find. Where as my teen years, I would say F IT!! and walk out.

So in the end, relying on just reference only contributes to a small percentage on successfully finding the "right" candidate. In my opinion, if the candidate has the skill to get the job done, isn't a dick or a bitch, and has no criminal record, then I don't see a problem. | Some employers do not care , who you worked for 10 years ago. But, rather the most recent ones 2 to 3. And they require company numbers, registered land lines. Which they will call to confirm people.

You might've known EVERYTHING about the company and it's works, but being "top @ company" requires leadership usually evidenced by how you handle stressful situations. The higher you go up a company, no ones gives a shit about the technical knowledge, it's about if you can lead your team.
Since you got a bunch of time now, I would recommend you to read "how to win friends and influence people".
In the job market like most have said, it's not what you know, its who you know and how you carry yourself.
One of my old bosses once told me, the only qualification that matters is "mastering the art of office politics".
