Fantastic!

Having been in the recruiting and hiring business for almost six years now, I find the authors approach to be right on target. We receive calls daily from individuals seeking advice on how to find their next opportunity and as the author points out, it is a planned process that involves some very basic but demanding requirements that simply will not fail if truly implemented. In these ever changing times this book provides advice for individuals who are seeking a job now but who also should be practicing many of these techniques all the time so that they can be in control of their careers and not controlled by them! Absolutely a must have for every job hunter.

Detailed, practical, clever, and useful guide on how to get a job you want

You could be a brilliant mind or an expert in your field, but unless you know how to showcase your abilities and know what the employers are looking for, you might never get that job you are applying for. That’s what this book is all about. It answers the question – Why people get hired.

The book opens with a short lesson in the history of economics, but don’t worry – there’s a reason for that. I think the author wanted to show us how we should see our – the employees’ – value on the job market.

The author systematically walks the reader through the thought process of looking at ourselves and realizing what we have to offer; looking at the job market and realizing what it requires; and showing how to match the two.
The employer’s point of view and considerations while choosing among the job applicants is one of the more interesting points of this book, in my opinion. An average person has no clue what goes into that sort of thought process and yet it’s one of the main components that goes into hiring an applicant.

Yet the strongest point of this book is to help us realize our own value. This is not just “You are the Best so Go Get It” sort of thing. There are practical pointers and advise on how to make sure your potential employer would realize your value as well.

The book also covers all the basic points of job hunting in much detail – how to construct your resume so it will get on the top of the list of the applications, how to look and apply for the job effectively, how to prepare for an interview, what to do on the day of the interview, how to negotiate the details of your employment, etc.

All in all, this is a detailed, practical, clever, and useful guide on how to get a job you want. If you are looking for a job, this book can be a good investment for you.
