This is one of a very few job search books written from a professional recruiter's perspective. Over 5,000 copies of this book have been sold nationally through , Barnes & Noble, Local Bookstores, on College & University campuses across the US, Back of Room after Speeches on job searches, and as an e-book! Most job search books have been written by Writers (makes sense!) and Career Counselors. As a Recruiter in the trenches, Bill knows both sides of the desk. He understands the hiring manager's side and fears as well as the candidate's. This understanding is key to being successful in the job search.
Since 1981, Bill Humbert has worked with thousands of managers and candidates, read over 500,000 resumes, and voluntarily helped hundreds of people find their next position, even in recessions. The processes in the RecruiterGuy's Guide to Finding a Job may be used by anyone from a C-level executive to a college recruit.
When you look at the job search process as a series of smaller important processes, you understand why so many books have been written on different aspects of the search. The search is worth it if you find a job that makes you happy. The book is organized by process so you can pick it up at any time and review chapters that impact your situation.
Within the book, Bill inserts RecruiterGuy stories to illustrate points, many are humorous. This is a lightly updated edition. The print edition was popular among its readers. This is one of the reviews.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great information whether or not you're looking for a job May 28, 2011

Format Paperback
In the past, looking for a job was not a "science" you simply filled out an application or sent in a resume, waited for a request for an interview (or not), and then waited for a "yes/no" phone call. As we moved from the 80's into the 90's and then the 2000's, more people are entering the work force in general. Couple that with high unemployment rates, and it's no longer the simple game it used to be. That's where this book comes in.
I have read a great deal of information and written articles about job/career changes. Taking into account all I have researched, this book is absolutely at the top of my list and here are a few of the reasons why.
1) The way the information is presented. Readers aren't looking for paragraphs and paragraphs of information. Some people simply don't learn that way. This book offers thought provoking questions, actionable lists, chapter summaries, and the ideal amount of "real world" stories.
2) The goals acronym SCAMPs can easily be used by ANYONE, for ANYTHING. I found this worked for a recent personal situation in which I had to make a decision and needed something to help me put a plan into place I could stick with.
3) The "outside the box" information, especially using a social networking site such as LinkedIn. I always viewed this site as another Facebook however, I was wrong. I never really saw the value LinkedIn provides when it comes to career. A feature called "Answers" that I never knew existed intrigued me. It lets you establish yourself as an "expert" and gives you this status recognition when you have six answers chosen as the best answers.
4) The behind the scenes info people often forget about. For example, dealing with a counteroffer from your current employer when you resign, how to handle relocation packages and taxes (and I wish I had known this when I relocated), how internships and co-ops can help, and many others.
5) The appendices at the back - especially Appendix A - are so helpful. I actually purchased a book several years ago that had similar information I never really used it. It's too bad Bill's book wasn't out at that time because I would have received a much greater amount of useable information...

RecruiterGuy Guide To Finding A Job eBook Bill Humbert Reviews
I had been out of the job search game for nearly two decades. My long term employer was acquired and the new leadership's direction made it clear it was time to fine a new place of employment. I found the information provided in Bill's book to be very helpful in getting back into the job search world, including interviews and salary negotiations. It was also helpful in determining which offer was right for me.
Great help in addressing items in my job search. Easy to read. The RecruiterGuy's experience in the job market benefits the rest of us.
Bill Humbert's guide is a practical approach to navigating the job search landscape! I found his best advice was to reach out to four contacts daily and to share your best career 'stories' during these calls and on interviews. I bet these tips and more will help you on your search journey........,,,Kathleen from NYC.
