The Reverse Job Search Method by James H Whittaker Pdf

If you're a seasoned professional looking to land a more fulfilling career that pays you what you're worth... then this might be the most important book you ever read. Accelerating your career to the next level of impact and earnings is likely near the top of your agenda. But I bet you've discovered a problem. With so many "expert" voices and technology "solutions" vying for your attention, it's become increasingly difficult to create a career acceleration strategy that actually works. You end up getting stuck on low-value tasks, like re-writing your resume and scrolling job boards. All that changes today, because like any ambitious business needs a rapid growth plan, you need a career acceleration plan. The Reverse Job Search Method is your plan. After a decade as a senior member of the hiring team at one of the world's largest companies, James Whittaker finally reveals the core 4-step process that has guided more than 2,000 of his clients towards careers full of passion, meaning, and earning potential. The Reverse Job Search Method is THE career advancement strategy for the modern professional. Inside you'll discover... Why 80% of open positions are never advertised anywhere (it's called the "Hidden Job Market") and what you can do to unlock this market... How to create an iron-clad Unique Value Proposition that lines up to perfection with the deep requirements of the hiring team... Why attempting to beat the job boards, Applicant Tracking Systems, and auto-rejections is the worst use of a busy professional's time (and what to do instead)... Why crafting a "Value Letter" is far more important than spending time on your resume, CV, cover letter, or LinkedIn profile... ...and much more. James is renowned for his ability to distill complex topics into simple action steps. The Reverse Job Search Method will reshape what you think is possible for your career and will give you the tools and strategies you need to get the success you desire in weeks, not years.

The 2-Hour Job Search by Steve Dalton Pdf

A job-search manual that gives career seekers a systematic, tech-savvy formula to efficiently and effectively target potential employers and secure the essential first interview. The 2-Hour Job Search shows job-seekers how to work smarter (and faster) to secure first interviews. Through a prescriptive approach, Dalton explains how to wade through the Internet’s sea of information and create a job-search system that relies on mainstream technology such as Excel, Google, LinkedIn, and alumni databases to create a list of target employers, contact them, and then secure an interview—with only two hours of effort. Avoiding vague tips like “leverage your contacts,” Dalton tells job-hunters exactly what to do and how to do it. This empowering book focuses on the critical middle phase of the job search and helps readers bring organization to what is all too often an ineffectual and frustrating process.

The Oxford Handbook of Job Loss and Job Search by Ute-Christine Klehe PhD,Edwin van Hooft PhD Pdf

Job search is and always has been an integral part of people's working lives. Whether one is brand new to the labor market or considered a mature, experienced worker, job seekers are regularly met with new challenges in a variety of organizational settings. Edited by Ute-Christine Klehe and Edwin A.J. van Hooft, The Oxford Handbook of Job Loss and Job Search provides readers with one of the first comprehensive overviews of the latest research and empirical knowledge in the areas of job loss and job search. Multidisciplinary in nature, Klehe, van Hooft, and their contributing authors offer fascinating insight into the diverse theoretical and methodological perspectives from which job loss and job search have been studied, such as psychology, sociology, labor studies, and economics. Discussing the antecedents and consequences of job loss, as well as outside circumstances that may necessitate a more rigorous job hunt, this Handbook presents in-depth and up-to-date knowledge on the methods and processes of this important time in one's life. Further, it examines the unique circumstances faced by different populations during their job search, such as those working job-to-job, the unemployed, mature job seekers, international job seekers, and temporary employed workers. Job loss and unemployment are among the worst stressors individuals can encounter during their lifetimes. As a result, this Handbook concludes with a discussion of the various types of interventions developed to aid the unemployed. Further, it offers readers important insights and identifies best practices for both scholars and practitioners working in the areas of job loss, unemployment, career transitions, outplacement, and job search.

Atlanta Paradox by David L. Sjoquist Pdf

Despite the rapid creation of jobs in the greater Atlanta region, poverty in the city itself remains surprisingly high, and Atlanta's economic boom has yet to play a significant role in narrowing the gap between the suburban rich and the city poor. This book investigates the key factors underlying this paradox. The authors show that the legacy of past residential segregation as well as the more recent phenomenon of urban sprawl both work against inner city blacks. Many remain concentrated near traditional black neighborhoods south of the city center and face prohibitive commuting distances now that jobs have migrated to outlying northern suburbs. The book also presents some promising signs. Few whites still hold overt negative stereotypes of blacks, and both whites and blacks would prefer to live in more integrated neighborhoods. The emergence of a dynamic, black middle class and the success of many black-owned businesses in the area also give the authors reason to hope that racial inequality will not remain entrenched in a city where so much else has changed. A Volume in the Multi-City Study of Urban Inequality
