This is not a \"hack\" or blueprint of the secret to getting a job (hint, that doesn't exist). And it's definitely not another “just be confident!” pep talk from someone who hasn’t applied to a job since 2009. This is a real book, for real people, written by someone who really gets it.\nInside, you’ll learn how to:\nStop mass-applying and start actually landing interviews\nWrite a resume that gets read instead of ignored\nNavigate interviews, ghosting, rejection, and rage spirals\nNetwork authentically and position yourself like a pro without the cringe.\nMake recruiters judge you the right way\nWhether you’re burned out, laid off, or quietly plotting your exit, this book gives you the tools to stop spiraling and start getting strategic.\nBecause job searching isn’t a crisis. It’s a skill.\nAnd it’s time you got good at it.\n\n\"Reading Mike's book is like sharing job search war stories with an old friend who's done more than his share of time in the trenches. Mike balances his own job search woes with his expertise in recruiting in a way few can pull off. Funny, actionable, and above all REALISTIC advice for anyone seeking employment.\" - Amy Miller- Recruiting Manager, Amazon\n\n\"Most books are written by people who are out of touch with the reality of the job market in 2025. Mike on the other hand has landed jobs across a range of companies, navigated layoffs, and provides practical advice that balances empathy with realism - something that's hard to find these days.\" - Bonnie Dilber - Recruiting Leader, Zapier\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0FJX996XF\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0FJX996XF.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Peditto, Mike\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
