Don’t send a resume : and other contrarian rules t

Everybody knows how to get a job - get together a detailed resume, starting with your job objective; send it out to plenty of personnel departments, the more the better so your chances of hitting a good company increase; wait for the phone to ring. WRONG! all of that seems to make sense, and perhaps some people have gotten jobs that way. But if you want a great job, the best way to get it is to ignore the common wisdom and set yourself head and shoulders above the average guy. 'The Job-Getting Blueprint' and 'The Job Seeker's Glossary' will guide you on your way, as will the basic form and variations for a 'Boomerang Letter'. Fox's rules not only help today's job seekers devise a wining strategy, but also show how to prepare for and make the best impression in an interview. His wisdom-packed book gives readers the edge on the competition, and helps prepare them for the challenges and rewards of landing not just a good job, but a great one.
