Written from my perspective as a long-time hiring manager, this e-book gives you step-by-step guidance through every stage of your job search … explaining at each step what a hiring manager is thinking and what they want to see from you … from getting noticed initially, to nailing the interview, to navigating the tricky post-interview period, all the way through your offer. You’ll learn things like: what hiring managers are looking for when they ask common interview questions how to talk about sensitive issues when you interview — firings, bad bosses, and more how to avoid companies that aren’t a good fit 6 ways you might be sabotaging your job search 2 ways you can turn rejection to your advantage Here are some things readers have said after purchasing it: “Thanks to following Alison’s advice in this book, I’m about to start a new job in a stretch position. The director of HR kept complimenting my professionalism through the entire process, and really loved the questions I asked during my interviews. My new manager is so excited he was vibrating when I signed the offer last week. And partly due to selling myself well, and partly due to changing from clerical work to network administration, I have a 50% salary increase and room to grow.” “Thanks to the tips, tricks, and advice in this book, I landed an incredible new job in a new-to-me industry doing something I love. I was also able to negotiate a great hiring package including a big jump in salary and benefits. I’m sure I would have found a decent job without this book, but I absolutely feel that I was able to find something incredible with it.” “This morning my husband had an interview. I bugged him for over a week about reading your guide and he ignored me. Yesterday, I twisted his arm and finally got him to read it. He liked the advice so much he read it a second time. He really took it seriously and followed all of the advice you gave … He just called me to tell me the interview was done and that it had been the best interview he had ever had.” “I used to have 50/50 luck getting past phone interviews and into the actual in-person interview. Once I read your book, I went 100% in getting past the phone interview, and I was ALWAYS in the top running for every position since then. I absolutely know it was because of your advice in the book. I could just feel the quality of my interviews go up exponentially after I read it.” Get your copy with this 40% off discount code (newjob) now! { 22 comments }

DivineMissL* May 15, 2019 at 9:33 am Is this available in real book form? I want to get it for my son, I don’t think he will read it as an e-book.
Old Dinosaur Lady* May 15, 2019 at 8:01 pm Stupid question: How do I gift a copy of an ebook to someone? I’d love to give this to my daughter and her boyfriend, but I’m not sure how that would work….. (ugh, I feel SO stupid)

N* May 15, 2019 at 1:55 pm I reference this book every time I look for a new job- and I got it five years ago! Thank you so much Alison. This book was the reason I got my offers and it was worth every penny.
Carlie* May 15, 2019 at 4:31 pm Purchased and thank you! My kids are trying to get summer jobs now, and will be college grads looking for career employment in the very near future. Much appreciated!

ThisIsNotWhoYouThinkItIs* May 16, 2019 at 10:36 am Adding to the rest–this book is worth every dollar spent. I wasn’t sure I needed it originally but I bought it to help me with my job search. I realized my “safe, professional” resume read as bland and generic. I didn’t need to go crazy but I did need to focus on my accomplishments more (and target my cover letter!). It’s all well and good to be ready for the interview, but you’ve got to make the cut first! Thanks so much Alison!
wingmaster* May 16, 2019 at 11:09 am Just purchased and started reading it last night! It seems like the perfect time too for me.
Raquel* May 16, 2019 at 12:07 pm I bought this a couple of years ago and it gave me a lot of confidence when I was looking for a new job at that time.
