Confessions of a Headhunter by Mark Palmer Pdf

Mark Palmer has spent over thirty years in executive recruitment. He has worked within virtually every sector of the economy and undertaken searches at the executive, senior functional, and middle management level. During this time, he has recruited over one thousand executives or senior managers and has undertaken face-to-face interviews with over ten thousand people. He has interviewed every personality type and has witnessed his fair share of elegant and abhorrent behaviour. He has served over seven hundred different clients, most of whom have been a privilege to work for, while others have been a challenge to work for, and a few have been decidedly difficult. It is this mixture of the good, the bad, and the ugly that has prompted him to write Confessions of a Headhunter.

Offering insight readers won't get in class, on the Internet, or from their parents, expert author Peter Vogt guides college students through the process of career preparation.

This volume consists of more than 60 advice articles separated into four major sections: "Take a Look Around--A Real Look Around," "Be Careful What You Think You Know." "Build Your Skills and Experience Through Hands-on Activities," and "Land the Job You Really Want." An epilogue offers advice on getting the most out of a career counselor, and an appendix suggests helpful resources for further research.

Tortured Confessions by Ervand Abrahamian Pdf

The role of torture in recent Iranian politics is the subject of Ervand Abrahamian's important and disturbing book. Although Iran officially banned torture in the early twentieth century, Abrahamian provides documentation of its use under the Shahs and of the widespread utilization of torture and public confession under the Islamic Republican governments. His study is based on an extensive body of material, including Amnesty International reports, prison literature, and victims' accounts that together give the book a chilling immediacy. According to human rights organizations, Iran has been at the forefront of countries using systematic physical torture in recent years, especially for political prisoners. Is the government's goal to ensure social discipline? To obtain information? Neither seem likely, because torture is kept secret and victims are brutalized until something other than information is obtained: a public confession and ideological recantation. For the victim, whose honor, reputation, and self-respect are destroyed, the act is a form of suicide. In Iran a subject's "voluntary confession" reaches a huge audience via television. The accessibility of television and use of videotape have made such confessions a primary propaganda tool, says Abrahamian, and because torture is hidden from the public, the victim's confession appears to be self-motivated, increasing its value to the authorities. Abrahamian compares Iran's public recantations to campaigns in Maoist China, Stalinist Russia, and the religious inquisitions of early modern Europe, citing the eerie resemblance in format, language, and imagery. Designed to win the hearts and minds of the masses, such public confessions—now enhanced by technology—continue as a means to legitimize those in power and to demonize "the enemy."
