Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Consider human resources consultant DeLuca a personal cheerleader during your job search. He organizes and analyzes the searcher's life with enthusiasm, energy, and style. Confused about the hows and whys of headhunters? DeLuca lists all facts and fiction about recruiters, noting that U.S. search firms alone received 11 million re{‚}sume{‚}s for 14,000 positions. Wondering how to handle the totally incompetent interviewer? Listen carefully, determine his or her style and pace, and then interact accordingly. Thought exercises are partnered with checklists of activities completed. The traditional subjects of the job search--e.g., re{‚}sume{‚}s, letters, questions to ask and be asked, self-assessment quizzes--are included; DeLuca is best, though, when he helps analyze what went right, what failed, and how to counteract mistakes--in general, provides a psychological point of view on every step toward full employment.

This review is from: How to Get a Job in 90 Days or Less: A Realistic Action Plan for Finding the Right Job Fast (Paperback)
90 Days or Less is an arsenal of heavy duty strategic weapons for quickly arming a coherent job search mission and landing the job of your choice. Matthew DeLuca motivates you from "day one" and shepherds you through the entire process. He gives you a good insider-looking-out perspective on the job hunt process helping the reader to anticipate all phases of job hunting from Getting Organized to Closing the Deal. 90 DAYS is an excellent reference for transitions from one job to another. More important, if you are a recent college grad consider your Resume and 90 DAYS OR LESS the two most important tools to have in hand before you begin you job hunt.

This review is from: How to Get a Job in 90 Days or Less: A Realistic Action Plan for Finding the Right Job Fast (Paperback)
After reading this book from my local public library, I bought it for my own. It's hard to get a new job in 90 days, but this book puts you on the path. It does have excersises in it though. Some people need those. The tips are very good even in todays job market.
