The Quick Job Search Booklet

Covers the basics on how to explore career options and conduct an effective job search.

The best way to get a job is to go out and get interviews! And the best way to get interviews is to make a job out of getting a job.
—Michael Farr

This book is special because it's brief! Mike Farr has written several longer and more-detailed books on job search. But this booklet was written in response to many requests for a book that would help job seekers focus quickly on the essential job search tasks, one that could be used by instructors and trainers who have only short amounts of time to spend with job seekers.

The Seven Basic Job Search Steps
From years of experience, here are the basic things that can make the most difference in a job search:

• Identify your key skills.
• Define your ideal job.
• Learn the two most effective job search methods.
• Write a superior resume.
• Organize your time to get two interviews a day.
• Dramatically improve your interviewing skills.
• Follow up on all leads.
