By Bernard Haldane Associates
Much of the traditional job search now takes place online. However, job seekers face a daunting task of navigating through a sea of employment-related websites. Over 100,000 websites, sponsored by employers, headhunters, professional associations, newspapers, and others, focus on various aspects of finding a job, with a decided emphasis on resumes and job postings. Primarily free to job seekers, most such sites instead serve the interests of employers and recruiters who need to cost effectively find and screen potential employees. But there is more to this story, as revealed in this book, that is very promising for savvy job seekers.
As a pioneer in developing career management approaches for millions of job seekers, Bernard Haldane Associates once again takes the lead in showing how to harness the power of the Internet to conduct an effective job search.
