Diary of a Job Search chronicles one job seeker's career transition while providing a comprehensive snapshot of the job search process. Readers will immediately connect with Tim Johnston, a downsized not-for-profit professional who exposes the real life roller coaster ride that accompanies career transition. Tim realizes that his true search is one of self-discovery, transformation, and reinvention and his story is peppered with moments of truth, disappointment, humor, and hope that keep the reader absorbed in the drama and rooting for Tim all the way. Diary entries are presented in tandem with practical campaign tips for resume development, interview and negotiation strategy, and networking. It's like having your own personal career coach and cheerleader with you every step of the way and each chapter contains useful suggestions for maximizing the efficiency of the job seeker's journey. The key to the book's success is its ability to validate search strategies by partnering guidance with actual search scenarios that Tim and other job seekers encounter.
