A groundbreaking career guide that gives job-seekers of all ages and at every level of experience (or inexperience) the tools for crafting a focused, successful job-search strategy regardless
of the state of their chosen industry or the economy in general.
This concise, hard-hitting guide gives job-seekers cutting-edge advice on what it takes to find—and land—a job in virtually any field no matter how dire the predictions from media pundits and
so-called experts. Ever the straight-shooter, top career coach Donald Asher neither minimizes nor sugar coats reality. In ten succinct chapters, he turns conventional job-search advice on its
head by counseling readers that what they think they know is probably wrong and that they’re looking for work in all the wrong places. Why? Because all industries are always
hiring all of the time; most jobs are never advertised; there are usually bigger opportunities at smaller companies; contingent jobs are great jobs, not last resorts; and you get
jobs through people who can help you, not through computers that can’t. Every page of Cracking the Hidden Job Market is packed with the no-frills fundamentals every job-seeker needs to
find great opportunities—and get hired.
