“When you know the rules, you can win the game.”

When you set out on your search, you’re likely to get all kinds of advice. One of the most common misconceptions we’ve seen is the idea of the resume blast, shooting your application to literally hundreds of potential employers in the hope that a small percentage of those will turn into interviews, of which an even smaller percentage of those might turn into actual offers. In our experience, this is time-consuming, inefficient and highly unlikely to net you the results you’re seeking.
Rather than approaching the job-seeking process with a “numbers game” mentality, The Top Candidate Playbook walks you through the process of optimally positioning yourself for success through a highly targeted, acutely focused approach. This workbook-style book takes you step-by-step through the entire process, from in-depth self-evaluation to detailed guidance regarding resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles, interviews, salary negotiations and more. Professionals at every stage in their career share expectations and best practices based upon their experiences. Actionable, relevant and insightful, this Playbook is a proven game-changer.
