Introverts: Leverage Your Strengths for an Effective Job Search (ePub)

"I've had some incredible personal growth from this book. The patterns that emerged from the exercises are enlightening. I'm finally saying 'enough is enough'.  I have to stop going for the money, and get a job that will energize instead of draining me. Without this book, I'd probably go back to the same bad-fit, stress-filled, long-commute type of job. So a heartfelt thank you!" ~ A.B.

Interview with the author:

Why did you write this book?
Throughout the 10 years experience in coaching and employment counseling, I noticed that introverts feel more challenged when it comes to job hunting. Being an introvert myself, I want to help them become more successful in a professional world that seems more impressed with the extroverted behavior.

How is this book different from other job search books?
The tips and strategies from this practical book help introverts shift the perception from feeling a victim to creating a strategy mix that meets the employer midway, while staying true to their introverted nature. It also encourages the readers to become project managers of their own job search project, and make it more effective by using their strengths.
