Editor’s Note: Our book reviews can not be bought. We only review books that we and other tomatoes have read and think you’ll enjoy. And while this section may occasionally be sponsored by a publisher or author, it does not guarantee that the book will be reviewed here, unless it stands on its own merits.
Summer is a great time to job hunt
Reviewer: The Three Tomatoes
Two reasons why. First, your competition levels drop. Many people choose the hammock over the networking meeting so there aren’t as many active applicants during the summer months. And second, your networking is more productive. Although it’s true people are more difficult to reach, your meetings are likely to pay off in a big way. The early fall is one of the strongest hiring periods of the year because new projects are put in place after the summer slowdown. Therefore, the more people you connect with during the summer, the more likely you are to be the one called in for an interview.
These were just two pieces of the great advice we got yesterday from Mary Eillen Williams, author of "LAND THE JOB YOU LOVE / 10 Surefire Strategies for Jobseekers Over 50”, on our radio show, Tomatoes in the Trenches. You can listen to the interview here.
Mary Eillen’s book draws on her twenty years experience counseling midlife jobseekers, and gives older applicants the insider techniques they need to turn their age into their advantage. The book, which is a comprehensive work book, will help you:
• Emphasize your special skills to set yourself apart from the competition
• Use the best resume format to highlight your experience as an older applicant
• Move your search forward and get in front of key decision makers
• Ensure you make a dynamic first impression, ace the interview, and much, much more
“Land the Job You Love” is available at Amazon.com.
