5.0 out of 5 stars Alison Doyle's Job Search Guidebook, June 8, 2011

This review is from: Alison Doyle's Job Search Guidebook (Paperback)

Alison Doyle has crafted a superb resource for readers who are considering a job or career change. She uses easy to understand language to guide job seekers/career changers through a successful process from self-assessment and career research through job acquisition. Having worked as a Career Services Director for almost 25 years, I found Alison's approach to be fundamentally sound and grounded in the best practices within the discipline. She integrates traditional strategies and resources with sound advice about tapping digital resources and fills the book with links to helpful websites. Alison's many years as a Career Service professional at the college level and as the Job Search Guide for About.com have clearly enabled her to communicate about this topic in a concrete way with lots of real world examples. I highly recommend this resource for those searching for the right job and career.

Alison Doyle gives concrete, step-by-step advice for even the most neurotically thorough job hunter. It's comprehensive--most appealing to me was how it walks you through interviewing minutiae, and even explains how to research pay rates. This book is an absolute gem.
