Editorial Review Product Description Get yourself off on the right foot. First, organize your supplies; then, organize your search. Target your search in the job market of your choice; then, give yourself the tools that you need in order to break in to that market. Find out what separates bad resumes from resumes that get results. Discover the secrets of drumming up job leads, from researching online to using your own networks or working with a recruiter. After you're in, you'll be ready to shine with Messmer's complete list of the do's and don'ts of giving great interviews; and you'll be confident when the interview ends, knowing that you possess the keys to successfully closing an interview. Don't wait another day. Find the job you want with Job Hunting For Dummies, 2nd Edition. Max Messmer is eminently qualified to instruct on all thingsjob-related. He's chairman and CEO of Robert Half International Inc.,the world's largest specialized staffing firm, and he's pennednumerous articles, columns, and books (such as The Fast Forward MBA inHiring and StaffingEurope), so Messmer knows a thing or two about how to applyfor a job effectively, and he has a few words to say on how not toblow it, too. He knows, for instance, how overwhelming and intimidating the job huntcan be, and how useful it is to break the monster down intoprioritized, bite-sized tasks. There are detailed chapters onorganizing, setting targets, and scoping out the field, plus essentialchapters on writing a résumé and cover letter thatpresent you in the best light, pursuing job leads, and performing wellin the interview spotlight. Messmer's experience in the field makes his advice reliable. You knowthat when he suggests how to research a company before the interviewso you are somewhat knowledgeable about what they do, and when hewarns against pink résumés and sarcastic cover letters,he's offering the collective opinion of hundreds of staffingprofessionals. It's advice worth reading, no matter how qualified youalready are to do the job once you get it. The only misleading aspectof Job Hunting for Dummies is the title, because no dummy woulddo something so smart as to increase his or her application advantageby reading Max Messmer's book. --Stephanie Gold Customer Reviews (7)
Job Hunting for Dummies
Used Book received in poor condition
Mini-book - a ripoff
A reliable starting point
Great book, worth every penny I went on a few interviews but had been nervous about certain questions such as; do I tell them how much I was making at my last job? Do I write a "thank you for interviewing" me letter after the interview? etc, etc... This book covers all the topics that you are nervous about. Examples; what to say in a cover letter, interviewing, salary negotiations + much more.Included are some useful sample resumés and cover letters in different formats. After reading this book, I feel much more confident that I'm handling my job hunting in a more professional manner. I would recommend this book for anyone who is looking for a job, or even if you have a job but hate your boss and want another one. In general, I like the For Dummies clear and concise and easy to read format. While there are some For Dummies books that have very little substance, this is not one of them. ... Read more |

Good book and motivating too!
Helped me improve my life with a nice new job
Very "What color is your parachute-ish" Because it is a quick an easy read, I suggest buying it cheap (or take it out of the library (sorry Amazon)),use it to whet your appetite for Bolles books, then begin collecting every edition you can get your hands on of"What color is your parachute" (every edition has something new in it). And try to get a hold of the audio book (I think he only put one out in 1995 - I wish he'd put one out every year!). It'll change your life and maybe mine too, cause maybe,just maybe, If everyone were to read Bolles books and truly understand the concepts I wouldn't have to deal with so many unhappy, bitter people at the work place.
Learn From Someone Who Knows!
Definitely worth a look What to Do (WTD) will be best suited to the midlife career changer with valuable skills -- self-motivated folks who just need direction. I like the book's down-to-earth no-nonsense tone. Good parts: Weak parts: I wish the author had focused more on interview and resume strategies; interestingly, she does not include a discussion of resumes at all.I suspect that her strength lies in the nuts-and-bolts of job search and I wish she had included more on those topics. I had to smile when I read her section on how to find a career counselor. Everyone who writes a book includes alist of "must have" qualifications for an advisor and, amazingly, those qualifications are all held by the author! There are valuable nuggets hereand I wish the author would write a meaty book, based on what she knows well, rather than an overview that is too sketchy in some places to be a useful guide. ...
