I recently read a new book by Darrell Gurrey titled Never Apply for a Job Again. I really enjoyed the content and the pace of the book. Mr. Gurney makes very pracitical points and leads the reader down a road that is very understandable. The only challenging part of the book is it will challenge many preconceived notions that job-seekers often have.
The following are some things I think readers will find value in from the book:
- Mr. Gurney makes it clear how out-of-sync the process of finding a job is with the way people really get hired.
- The book is a full of ideas that most will find pracitcal and understandable.
- If you've always looked for a job via online job boards or applying at a specific company's website, you'll get an alternative approach in the book that works.
- There is a strong emphasis on networking-the right kind.
- Mr. Guernney has a backgrond that is based in experience and theory. This is a huge plus.
The book is worth reading. I would even recommend it for those not looking for an opportuntiy, it might sharpen what has become dull.
