PEOPLE WILL NOT READ YOUR RESUME. On average, people spend six seconds reviewing your resume. Six seconds! That’s all it takes to determine whether you get an interview—for the job that could change your life.
DO YOU WANT TO FIND A JOB YOU LOVE? A role that you’re excited about? A place where you like the culture and the people? A position where you are doing what you love—and making an impact?
THIS BOOK DEMYSTIFIES EACH STEP OF THE JOB SEARCH based on interview insights from over fifty people at top Fortune 100 companies, including leading technology companies, consulting firms, investment banks—and non-profits, hedge funds and startups. This book includes specific guidance on how to:
•Figure out what you want to do next •Build the confidence to search •Create a resume that gets more interviews •Network authentically •Interview and get more offers •Negotiate and make $500k in your lifetime •Be successful in your new job
You can get more interviews. You can get amazing offers. You can find a job you LOVE.
This is a great book for helping you learn skills to apply for jobs and the interview process. I wouldn’t say the entire book helps you with the job search itself though, which is what I was hoping to find. It helps you brainstorm the things you like about jobs, but not really which ones would be right for you.
Tl;dr: great for someone with little to no experience landing a job, not great for someone lost in the job market and unsure of where they want to go.
