Rites of Passage at $100,000 to $1 Million+: Your Insider's Lifetime Guide to Executive Job-Changing and Faster Career Progress in the 21st Century
John Lucht
Rating: 5.0/5 Stars
Rank: 6578
John Lucht, an executive recruiter during the past three decades for some
of America's top corporations, knows what it takes to snag a new
six-figure job. Rites of Passage at $100,000 to $1 Million+ is his
newly revised guide to the ins and outs of a search for a job that ends in
success.
It promises a "comprehensive cram course in accelerating your
career"--a contemporary corporate equivalent of the traditional initiation
into adulthood from which it takes its title--updated for the cyber-age. And it delivers, with Lucht offering inside tips on the basic routes to a
new executive-level position: personal contacts (i.e., "ask for a
reference instead of a job"); networking ("never fail to get into the
office of anyone whose name is mentioned to you, never depart with less
than three new names"); executive recruiters ("understand their hidden
financial arrangements"); direct mail ("write to the CEO or a person two
levels above your target job"); and the Internet ("insert plenty of the
right 'keywords' so that the computer will find your resume").
Extensive
online references are also included throughout, and the material is
presented in a way that's easy to understand and implement.
