Two Good Books on Job Hunting

In my last post I talked about the challenges of working with a global team and some of the issues that arise from the practice of out-sourcing. While it is not directly on the subject, it might be helpful for some to know of a couple of good books on the subject of job hunting. And since nearly everyone will face a job change at some point, they are good resources for all of us.

The first book is “Ask the Headhunter: Reinventing the Interview to Win the Job” by Nick A. Corcodilos. This is an excellent look at how to break out of the old stereotypes of job hunting and interviewing and to focus on the things that will get you the job you want. The author’s web site is:

The other book is “What Color is Your Parachute” by Richard N. Bolles. This is probably the most popular book on job hunting ever written and for good reason. It has many good ideas and resources. His web site is:
