Are you interested in standing out in the crowded job search market? If you are open for fresh and unconventional ideas you must read this book. Levinson and Perry leave no stone unturned. Guerilla Marketing (just crack the cover!) offers literally hundreds of little known insider tips, strategies, out-of-the-box success stories, hands-on exercises, and pearls of wisdom. It covers Internet search strategies (including opening your own Web site, blogs and podcasting), performing an extremely competitive resume makeover and creating a higher-powered value-based resume using the real power of Google, Linkedin or Zoominfo to uncover opportunities in the "hidden job market", ahead of your competition. You learn to brand yourself and to sell your strengths in resume, letters, e-mail and interviews. The forward thinking ideas that are presented in this brilliant publication might be titled “The Reinvention of the Job Search”. This book by David Perry, Guerrilla Marketing for Job Hunters is my personal number one choice for job hunting. If you apply what you read, you will soon hear 'Welcome Aboard' or 'You're Hired'.

Orville Pierson is Senior Vice President, Corporate Director of Program Design and Service Delivery, for Lee Hecht Harrison, a 240-office career services company that is part of the $20 billion Adecco global family of employment services and placement firms. In this great book he publishes key information on how professional job search consultants structure their job search. You can use this book so you can apply the same winning strategies to your own search. The interesting point of this Pierson Method is that you learn to think like the “other side” and understand that the biggest obstacles are in our own minds. The important message is not to act like a victim, but act in a proactive approach with all the know-how to win the battle. A great book!

Networking for Job Search and Career Success
by Michelle Tullier Customer Review
|
|
|
Forming a powerful network is probably the most important step in the job search process. You do not need to look any further than this book, if you are searching for advise on networking. This book is the most comprehensive book on networking I have found and it contains every aspect of networking from preparation, actual networking, to the follow-through! For me, the sections on "networking for introverts" and the appendices that list (by industry) ideas for possible networking contacts and websites were very interesting. This book has very nice tools with accompanying exercises, and not to mention you will have fun performing them. One important message: Build and maintain your network but never confuse networking with schmoozing. A book that ideally complements the job finding strategies that you will discover in other job finding books like Guerrilla Marketing for Job Hunters from Levinson & Perry or The Job Search Solution from Tony Beshara. |

The Job Search Solution: The Ultimate System for Finding a Great Job Now!
by Tony Beshara Customer Review
|
|
| If you do not really want to focus on the Internet as search and communication medium, this might be one of the best job search books on the market, using a proactive approach. ‘The Job Search Solution’ not only gives you a powerful step-by-step program to the job search, but also provides the motivation for those who find the search process so often as baffling and ego-deflating. Unlike other job finding books that only seem to promote the use of recruiters or specific internet services, this one gives you powerful tools for finding the right job opportunity. The interactive exercises are very helpful to become more confident in your job search efforts and you will learn what really influences hiring choices. This book has it all for starting with your job search and is a nice complement to ‘Guerilla Marketing for Job Hunters’, where Internet search strategies are dominating. |
