A Career Press paperback available on Amazon.com or ask for it at any bookstore

Highly Effective Networking: Meet the Right People and Get a Great Job was selected by Harvey Mackay for inclusion in his “Mackay Lucky 13: A List of Life-Changing Books. The list appears in Mackay’s new book, Use Your Head to Get Your Foot in the Door: Job Search Secrets No One Else Will Tell You.

Virtually all job hunting experts agree that networking is the best way to find a great job. But most people don't have large networks or connections to the decision makers who do the hiring, so they need another way of networking.

Fortunately, job search networking is different from how networking is often taught. You don't have to hobnob with the rich and famous. There's no need for aggressive sales tactics. You just need to understand how real networking fits into your job search, and then be systematic about doing it. This book shows you how to:

• Use a small network to reach dozens of insiders and decision makers.

• Get the right message to the right people, even if you never met them.

• Speak effectively and comfortably with your networking contacts.

• Talk to decision makers before the job opening is announced.

Cut through the myths and misunderstandings about networking and see how millions of job hunters have successfully networked their way to great new jobs. And how you can too.
