1.0 out of 5 stars
You pay to read an advertisement for the author's company.,
By A Customer
This review is from: $100,000 & Above: The New Realities of Executive Job Hunting (Hardcover)
Although the advice in this book is sound, it is not particularly insightful. The serious job seeker in any salary bracket is better served by reading and following "What Color Is Your Parachute." The book states that traditional job hunting techniques do not work any more. Subsequent chapters focus on writing resumes and going for the right mailing lists. Throughout the book are references to what the author's company will do for you. . . analytical techniques, data bases, etc., which (of course) are not included in the book. There are some good tidbits of advice, however. These include things like preparing good and compelling stories that will be remembered by interviewers. Job seekers should focus on how they can add value to the potential new position. Most of the advice, however, sinks to the level of hollow platitudes. "Confidence is Critical--don't underrate yourself" "Age doesn't need to be the barrier you think it is" etc. Don't waste your time and money on this book.

Quirky but Insightful,

This review is from: $100,000 & Above: The New Realities of Executive Job Hunting (Hardcover)
This is a strange book, full of rambles and inconsistencies, but it is also highly insightful about how executive headhunters operate.
