Paul Rega is a veteran recruiter with twenty-six years of job hunting and career planning experience. His new job search book, "How To Find A Job: When There Are No Jobs," is a fascinating glimpse into the mind of an Executive Headhunter. Paul takes his readers on an engaging journey where he shares his vast knowledge of the job search process and how to successfully land a job in a weak labor market. This is a necessary and effective job search book for anyone who wants to survive and prosper in today's hyper competitive job market.

In August of 1984, Paul was called into his boss's office at The Fisher Scientific Company and abruptly informed that due to an economic cutback, he would be losing his job! Later that day, still in shock over what had just occurred, he sat on a cold metal folding chair at his local unemployment office, patiently waiting his turn amongst dozens of other seemingly distant minded souls. The thought that he had just lost his first job out of college was tough enough, but he owned a small house he had somehow managed to buy and wondered how he would be able to continue to pay the mortgage. His head jerked sharply upward as his name was finally called for an interview. He vividly recalls the meeting that followed with an older gentleman, a career counselor employed by the state. After Paul endured a battery of questions, the old man said, "Son, push on no matter how disgusting!" He would never forget those simple, but sage words, and knew that the older man understood what his feelings were at this difficult time in his life and probably had been there himself at some point in his career.

In his new book, Paul shares his unique perspective on how to successfully manage the job search process as it relates to a precipitous decline of the US job market. He engages his audience with a fascinating account of his own career struggles and the challenges he has faced as an executive recruiter. Included in his book are hundreds of proven and effective job search techniques and strategies designed to work in a weak labor market, including how to effectively market your background, interviewing skills, network building strategies, effective use of headhunters, salary and benefits negotiation and much more.

As president of an executive search firm, Paul has developed a unique twelve-step career assessment and goal setting process called "Intuitive Personal Assessment" designed to help guide his readers through the discovery and implementation of their desired career path. The self-assessment program utilizes an individual's intuition and incorporates their ideas, skills, interests, values and life experiences to determine one's unique career path.

Paul's message to his readers, many who are now the victims of the country's worst economic downturn since the Great Depression; "As life changes, so often does your career, and to be successful and prosper in today's hyper competitive job market, you must be armed with the proper job search knowledge and skills."

This book equips soon-to-be degree holders and recent college grads with the skills to ace their toughest test yet: the job interview. Nothing in school has prepared you for the brutal scrutiny of HR managers . . . nor the fierce competition you will encounter while trying to land your dream job. And calling in the cavalry is complicated. Far too many bookshelf and online resources bolster a more been-around-the-block candidate or one erroneously lured into believing it's a cinch to impress recruiters. Campus career offices are reassuringly capable, but pushed to the max with too many students knocking on overly-beaten doors. As a result, twentysomethings scramble to maximize and differentiate in the dog-eat-dog interview meat market. In a manageable three-step approach, Ditch the Flip-Flops changes all this by focusing on critical fundamentals and life-changing momentum specific to recent college grads. No smoke and mirrors or promises that sixty seconds is all it takes. Instead, straightforward answers, hundreds of examples, and keen insights from busines leaders, HR professionals, and those in the trenches. All in all, Ditch the Flip-Flops is Interviewing 101 at its guts and glory best.

"THE BEST INTERVIEW OF MY LIFE" "Recently, I had the most important job interview in my 20-year career, and for some last minute advice on 'winning over the competition' I phoned a dear friend and her husband, an executive with a Fortune 500 company. Instead of providing advice on how to answer interview questions, they provided me with some great questions to ask the hiring manager. The questions came from Mr. Burnett's "The Peak Interview". I quickly acquired a copy of his book and devoured it in just a couple of hours. I applied the book's techniques and as a result, the interview was the best interview of my life. They called with the job offer last night!" Lisa Wadlington, Memphis TN, 10 Aug 2010 New insights into the job interview process can give you an edge to win the interview and get the job. By the time you get to the job interview, the company has determined you are qualified for the job. But so are all the other interviewees. Your experience, skills, competencies, and abilities will not differentiate you. Your competition is just as qualified as you are. You need an edge. Great jazz soloists know that when they are playing a solo, they have to hit one or two peaks in the body of the solo and end with a flourish. That's because people evaluate an experience based on its peaks (good or bad) and how the experience ended. The rest of the experience is remembered, but the evaluation of the experience is based on its peaks, and how it ends. This is called the 'Peak/End rule'. Psychologist Daniel Kahneman is credited with describing this rule. His insight had such a big impact on the study of Economics that he won the 2002 Nobel Prize in Economics, despite being a psychologist who never took any economics courses. The Peak Interview shows you how to leverage this insight as you prepare for, and produce an outstanding interview. This insight can boost your chances of winning the interview and getting the job.

    This is a must read! It is the first and the original book of quantitative questions from finance job interviews. Painstakingly revised over 15 years and 12 editions, Heard on The Street has been shaped by feedback from many hundreds of readers. With 50,000 copies in print (late 2009), its readership is unmatched by any competing book. The revised 12th edition contains over 175 quantitative questions collected from actual job interviews in investment banking, investment management, and options trading. The interviewers use the same questions year-after-year, and here they are with detailed solutions! This edition also includes over 125 non-quantitative actual interview questions, giving a total of more than 300 actual finance job interview questions. There is also a revised section on interview technique based on Dr. Crack's experiences interviewing candidates and also based on feedback from interviewers worldwide. The quant questions cover pure quant/logic, financial economics, derivatives, and statistics. They come from all types of interviews (corporate finance, sales and trading, quant research, etc.), and from all levels of interviews (undergraduate, MS, MBA, PhD). The first seven editions of Heard on the Street contained an appendix on option pricing. That appendix was carved out as a standalone book in 2004, and it is now available in its revised second edition published April 2009: "Basic Black-Scholes" ISBN=0970055242. Dr. Crack has a PhD from MIT. He has won many teaching awards, and has publications in the top academic, practitioner, and teaching journals in finance. He has degrees/diplomas in Mathematics/Statistics, Finance, Financial Economics and Accounting/Finance. Dr. Crack taught at the university level for over 20 years including four years as a front line teaching assistant for MBA students at MIT. He has worked as an independent consultant to the New York Stock Exchange, and his most recent practitioner job was as the head of a quantitative active equity research team at what was the world's largest institutional money manager.

    Q&A with Author Gayle Laakmann McDowell
    Author Gayle Laakmann McDowell
    What should you major in?
    Ideally, one should major in a field that's directly applicable to your desired profession: marketing for a marketer, accounting for an accountant, computer science for a software engineer, etc. However, many jobs don't correspond to an exact major. In these cases, a curriculum that is rigorous and demonstrates strong quantitative and analytical skills will prove useful. Economics, statistics, and physics are three great choices.

    What can you do outside of work to make yourself stand out?
    One of the strongest things a candidate can do is something that shows initiative or leadership. Imagine a candidate who tutors under-privileged children on the side. That's a wonderful thing to do. But, the candidate who launched their own tutoring program and built up a team of twenty fellow tutors will have a much stronger application. Your efforts need not be "feel goody," though. Entrepreneurial endeavors are greatly respected, and can earn you a bit of cash too.

    How do you perform well at work -- and have it show in your next application?
    The key here is to think about your application well before you're writing it, as your entire job will be boiled down to just a few bullet points. Seek out projects that will lend themselves to short, concrete, understandable bullet points. Projects with an external impact are often ideal. Remember that while revamping some internal system may have an enormous impact on your company, the impact is usually unclear to those outside the company.

    How should you design your resume?
    Make it short and sweet. Remember that people don't really "read" resumes - they glance. Your resume should be bulleted (no bulky paragraphs) with specific, tangible accomplishments. And stick to one page, or two pages if absolutely necessary and only if you have more than ten years of experience.

    How much technical expertise do you need?
    Outside of engineering, truly technical (i.e., coding) experience isn't necessary, though it's certainly nice to have and can set you apart. What's more important is to be able to demonstrate knowledge of and passion for technology. You should understand how the big and the small companies are shaping the tech field, and how trends like cloud computing, security, and mobile technologies are affect businesses and consumers.

    How should you prep for the interview?
    Interview preparation should include a mix of company research, skill-based preparation and resume preparation. The latter is especially important, and often overlooked. You need to prepare for specific questions on every "project" on your resume. One way to ensure that you have good coverage of the key questions is by diagramming your Interview Preparation Grid, as discussed in the The Google Resume. Thorough preparation will give you a big leg up on other candidates!

    Have you ever wondered why you didn't get a job offer after an important interview?

    People interviewing for jobs today often fail because they are using yesterday's strategies. They haven’t realized that the best employers have changed the way interviews are done, and it now takes a different strategy to succeed. Competency-Based Interviews shows today's candidates a new, more targeted way to prepare for the tough interviews based on the competencies that the most sophisticated employers are looking for.

    Competency-Based Interviews offers you a new and more effective way to handle the tough new interviews so that you will emphasize the knowledge, skills and abilities that you have and that employers need. Most sophisticated U.S. and international employers are using competency-based systems to recruit, interview and select employees. Corporations such as American Express, Anheuser Busch, BP, Coca-Cola, Energizer, Federal Express, IBM, and Pfizer are all looking for specific competencies.

    Preparing for a competency-based interview will give you the strategy you need to:

    • Be selected for the most competitive positions.
    • Win the best job at a new organization.
    • Get a great first job or internship.
    • Be chosen for that critical promotion in your current organization.
    • Take control of your career path.
    • Increase your salary.
    • Get more interesting assignments and more interesting work

    Most interviewees don't know how to be successful when they are being interviewed by an organization looking for key competencies. Few candidates answer questions so they demonstrate their own critical competencies. Competency-Based Interviews will teach you what you need to master this tough new interview style and give the interviewers the answers that will win you the job.

    Job hunters in today's tight employment market need all the help they can get. Help in preparing for a job interview is especially important because the interview is where prospective employers decide whether or not to hire an applicant. Using the tried-and-true Q&A format, this freshly updated book prepares applicants to do their best during an interview. Each page asks a typical job interviewer's question along with an explanation of why such questions are typically asked plus tips on how each job hunter can customize the best answer to fit his or her own situation. Sample responses appear on the page's reverse side. The book covers more than 200 potentially thorny questions such as--
  • Work background and education--with questions such as "Have you ever been fired?" or "Why didn't you finish college?"
  • Skills and competencies--with questions that include "You appear to be overqualified for this job. What would cause you to take such a position at this time in your career?"
  • Personal values and goals--such as "After six months on the job, what will be the most annoying thing about you?"
  • Tricky job-fit questions--such as "What is your current salary?" or "What do you expect your starting salary to be?"
    The book is designed so that pages can be pulled out, selected, shuffled according to need, and used as flash cards for pre-interview practice. New to this edition is a personal branding checklist. Here in its new, updated edition is an unusual job-hunting tool that offers solid preparation for that very important step toward career success.

    Have you got the time to read 10 or more books and articles to add value prior to the interview? This book has been written mainly from the perspective of Java/J2EE job seekers and interviewers. There are numerous books and articles on the market covering specific topics like Java, J2EE, EJB, Design Patterns, ANT, CVS, Multi-Threading, Servlets, JSP, emerging technologies like AOP (Aspect Oriented Programming), Test Driven Development (TDD), Dependency Injection Dl (aka IoC - Inversion of Control) etc. But from an interview perspective it is not possible to brush up on all these books where each book usually has from 300 pages to 600 pages. The basic purpose of this book is to cover all the core concepts and key areas, which all Java/J2EE developers, designers and architects should be conversant with to perform well in their current jobs and to launch a successful career by doing well at interviews. The interviewer can also use this book to make sure that they hire the right candidate depending on their requirements. This book contains a wide range of topics relating to Java/J2EE development in a concise manner supplemented with diagrams, tables, sample codes and examples. This book is also appropriately categorized to enable you to choose the area of interest to you.

    This book will assist all Java/J2EE practitioners to become better at what they do. Usually it takes years to understand all the core concepts and key areas when you rely only on your work experience. The best way to fast track this is to read appropriate technical information and proactively apply these in your work environment. It worked for me and hopefully it will work for you as well. I was also at one stage undecided whether to name this book "Java/J2EE core concepts and key areas" or "Java/J2EE Job Interview Companion". The reason I chose "Java/J2EE Job Interview Companion" is because the core concepts and key areas discussed in this book helped me to be successful in my interviews, helped me to survive and succeed at my work regardless what my job (junior developer, senior developer, technical lead, designer, contractor etc) was and also gave me thumbs up in code reviews. This book also has been set out as a handy reference guide and a roadmap for building enterprise Java applications.
