5.0 out of 5 starsGain a competitive advantage with this great book.
By A Customer on April 15, 1999
Format: Paperback
This is an excellent book filled with online career strategies and resources. The author provides innovative ideas and a structured approach to developing an online resume and organized job search. The book is easy to read and understand and uses common comparisons for better comprehension of the internet functions.
The author explains how to find thousands of job listings through search engines, media sites, job boards and virtual job fairs using resources available by simply logging on with any web browser. Plus there are several sections dedicated to developing traditional, text and HTML resumes, creating keyword summaries, filling in e-forms, posting resumes to corporate data bases and using search agents/scouts. The author even explains how to insure that the cover letter and resume sent via e-mail looks the same to the receiver as it does to the sender.
The numerous lists of metajob boards and industry-specific job boards, directories, industry news resources, discussion forums, newsgroups, mailing lists and research tools makes this book a worthwhile investment for anyone pursuing a career. This book will definitely expand your knowledge of this new trend which is rapidly revolutionizing the world.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe Career-Seekers Bible
By Rosemarie Ginsberg on March 24, 2003
Format: Paperback
This is a "must have" reference for all professionals, both employed and unemployed alike. In addition to simplifying the process of electronic resume writing and job search techniques, Smith turns what typically is considered a challenge, into an educational experience. Regardless of your technology level, there is something for everyone in this book. From learning basic web technology to creating a professional web portfolio. In addition to that, she offers a wealth of information for electronic job search options and an abundance of search strategies. The powerful job search techniques that are presented throughout the book are invaluable.
I would highly recommend this publication to every professional that wants to stay ahead of the competition in the job market.
