Beyond the Resume

By Peter Gray and John Carroll
In your communications during your job search, using the right phrase can make all the difference! It can generate real interest in your candidacy and lead to an interview.
This book takes you from the point of initial contact with the hiring authority, through interviewing, and on to closing the deal. It offers advice on all phases of a job search, including:

Developing a resume
Writing letters
Networking
Cold-calling companies and recruiters
Leaving voice mail
Managing the interview
Responding to trick and non-relevant questions
And post-interview correspondence

You will be armed with powerful and provoking phrases which catch the listener's or reader's interest and enable you to follow up with meaningful information, rather than just being glib or using buzz-words.
Each chapter covers a different scenario or set of circumstances in which using the right phrases will pay off for you. Rational will be discussed, do's and don'ts highlighted, and advice given on how to construct and use the phrases. 192 pages. August 2006.
