I wanted to let anyone thinking about buying this book, to move forward with confidence. Winning the Job Race includes key information every job seeker must have to be successful in finding the right job. The chapter on networking alone is worth it's weight in gold. They describe how connections are made through networking that had never seemed possible before. I highly recommend this book and Gray Hair Management for all job seekers or anyone who is thinking of changing careers.

This is a concise book about how good networking and positive attitude will find you a great job! The authors have put together a superb outline of how experienced people find good jobs in this market -and it's not by sending mass resumes, it's who you know (and who your network knows). My last four jobs were received from people I knew, or came to know. This is must reading for anyone looking to transistion.
