From the Inside Flap

Are you looking for a new and better job? This book is for you.

Simply use just 5 or 10 of the proven job search secrets in this book, and you will find a job faster. For best results, use all 51!

And if you don't find a job using this book ... I want to buy it back from you.

That's right. If you don't get more calls for more job interviews after reading this book -- at any time during the next 30 days -- send the book back to me, with your original receipt. You'll get a prompt, courteous refund of your purchase price. And if you follow the instructions on page 86 and still don't get hired, you will get DOUBLE your money back.

Now.

The most powerful job search secrets in this book can be boiled down to seven words, spoken to me by an experienced recruiter, Larry Harris: "Stop trying to dehumanize the hiring process."

That means, in the end, you will be hired by a person. Not a computer or a Web site.

Before getting hired for any job, from fry cook at McDonald's to CFO at McDonald-Douglas, you will have to meet and go belly-to-belly with a living, breathing hiring manager.

So why not start meeting with more people, starting today? That's what the bulk of these tips will help you do -- meet more of the right people who can hire you.

Let's get started!

This book is a real treasure. Lots of good advice and reminders of what to do/not do. I may not try everything, but I did come up with some of my own "out there" ways to get the job I really want.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent advice in 51 Ways to Find a Job Fast,, September 10, 2006

This review is from: 51 Ways to Find a Job Fast -- Guaranteed! (Paperback)

We purchased Mr. Donlin's book last year and have studied its excellent advice multiple times since then. Among the most helpful pointers: make sure your resume is focused 80% on results and only 20% on responsibilities, instead of the other way around.

Another is: Write an objective for the position you are interested in that shows how you can add value to that company's operations, instead of the more typical objective that people use stating what they are looking for in an employer.

We found just about every chapter to be useful and written with a lot of common sense and real world advice, including How to Get 62,500 people to Send You Job Leads; and say Thank You After Every Interview.

We highly recommend this book.
