The 2-Hour Job Search: Using Technology to Get the Right Job Faster - Tapa blanda

Technology has changed not only the way we do business, but also how we look for work. The 2-Hour Job Search rejects laundry lists of conventional wisdom in favor of a streamlined job search approach that produces results quickly and efficiently. In three steps, creator Steve Dalton shows you how to select, prioritize, and contact prospective employers so you can land that critical first interview. Inside you'll find : A process free of outdated advice, since surfing online job postings is counterproductive, licking envelopes is antiquated, and reworking your resume is a waste of time ; Exact tasks with time limits, so you spend the right amount of time on the right task, every step of the way ; Instructions for optimizing your use of Linkedln, Google, and other online tools to find critical information nobody else thinks to look for, quickly and easily ; Advice from the leading thinkers in behavioral economics, psychology, and game theory to help you gain every advantage possible. Dalton's two-hour method has proven so successful that it has been shared at schools across the globe and is a formal part of the curriculum for all first-year MBAs at Duke University. With this book, you'll learn how to make it work for you, too.
