"How to cut your time searching for a job in half"
"Our proven job search process has helped hundreds shorten their search time. We will show you how to put this process to work for you."
If you'd like to ramp up your job search, get referrals that lead to a job and develop a roadmap to your next job, then this might be the most important web page you'll ever read.
Here's why:
As retained executive recruiters for more than 25 years we bring a unique perspective that no other career coach or outplacement firm can bring.
Retained recruiters hear the good, the bad and the ugly that happens in every job search. We reveal these traps and provide you a roadmap to avoid them.
Now, I know you're probably skeptical. That's normal and healthy. Let me give you three good reasons we can back up what we claim:
Three Reasons To Believe What We Say
Reason one: We have been involved in over 1,500 executive searches in the last 25 years and conducted over 10,000 interviews.
Reason two: Our first book "You're NOT The Person I Hired" has sold over 8,000 copies. This book is the hiring bible for many CEOs, Key Executives and HR Professionals.
Reason three: We are nationally recognized speakers on the topic of "best hiring practices." We speak over 70 times a year to CEOs and Key Executives on how to improve their hiring process and job search. In addition, we have coached, trained and assisted thousands of CEOs and Key Executives with critical hires and in-transition coaching.

“This cover letter technique has quadrupled my rate of first responses from recruiters for Internet posted jobs.”
“Recruiters have thanked me for using this technique, including a recruiter who recently responded, ‘I appreciate how you compared your experience to the required qualifications to highlight the synergies.’”

5) Learn the special preparation required for a phone interview.
- We share the three issues that can be measured during a phone interview. By preparing for these three critical issues we have seen candidates phone interviewing success more than double. We define success as getting asked to come in for a face-to-face interview.
6) Leveraging the internet is a best practice for getting found by recruiters and hiring managers.
- Very few candidates know how to maximize the internet. You can have hundreds more recruiters and hiring managers find you by properly leveraging the internet, than through traditional networking methods. There are three pages dedicated to this topic.
7) Properly controlling the interview will ensure you get your message out.
- You will more than double the number of times you get asked back for the second interview by learning how to properly control the interview so you get your message out.
8) If you have high turnover this is a must book for you.
- Accepting the right job is the key to reducing high turnover. This book was written specifically for you. How many times have you thought of the title of this book after accepting a new position? This is a roadmap to the right job, for the long-term
9) Get your resume noticed by recruiters and hiring managers
- Don't let your resume end up with the other 300 resumes that came in from a job posting. Your resume will stand out, move to the "A" pile. You will immediately notice the increase in calls.
Now, you're probably wondering how and why this workbook can do all those things.

Let me explain.
This is not a job search book you sit down read and then 48 hours later you have forgotten most of it.
This book will put you to work. Many say it is the hardest job they have ever had.
This is a job search workbook. It has exercises, templates, graphs, examples, what to do and what not to do and much more for you to do to energize your search.
Every step of a job search is covered from your personal success profile, networking, resumes, bio’s, interviewing, cover letters, thank you letters, employment contracts even what your 90 day plan should look like so you succeed.
We have gone to extremes to make this comprehensive and at the same time stop you from just spinning your wheels and doing worthless activities. Instead this workbook will put you to work on your search starting from the first day you open it until you find a new job.
This is a book written for the executive in search. It deals with the unique issues an executive encounters and provides a complete and thorough set of solutions and resources.

"I had a phone interview scheduled the day after I received your email on the interview process. I was already prepared for the interview having performed the necessary background info on the company etc, however, while I thought it silly to stand in front of my desk, I found my conversation much more energetic and lively...kept my answers to less than 2 minutes even though I was really wanting to expand my thoughts more...and I felt the process and direction I downloaded from your site very helpful...I fly out this Wednesday for a series of interviews at the corporate office of the employer. Thanks for a timely email!"

Warning: Do NOT buy any job search book unless it meets the following 3 criteria
There is a lot of confusion surrounding our field. I want to give you 3 criteria or elements you absolutely, positively must have in any solution you obtain:
1: Every job search process must be comprehensive. This is one of the few that covers the complete job search process from the beginning until you land and even after you land.
We have a section on what to do in your first 90 days. When you cement the relationship from the start it is hard to change that reputation.
2: This workbook is exclusively for executives. Other books take the one-size-fits all approach.
We know the executive faces a completely different set of issues. So we take them head-on and so should you.
3: This book is unique because of the authors. Any one can write a book. You want experts who have been there done that. Not someone who has been on the outside looking in. Your job search is too important.
Before you spend a dime on any job search materials make sure the person knows what the issues are and has experience solving them for executives.
You get at least 1000 times your money's worth!
Our book will save you tens of thousands of dollars.
