Job seekers, are you new or contemplating a return to the job market? Struggling with how or where to start? The new author, J.S. Roberts takes you through (in layman's terms) the trials and tribulations of a typical, contemporary job seeker. The reader is whisked along on a journey through a career that started in the bean and berry fields of his childhood in rural Oregon, and continues today (over 40 years later) in high tech industries like the pharmaceutical, telecommunications or consumer electronics industries of the Midwest. I Need a Job, Badly, is an owner's manual for planning and executing your successful job search. These pages are filled with tips and tricks on setting your own realistic goals when searching for that 'perfect' job. Considerations for dressing for the interview, interview preparation and dispelling the myths of a 'bullet proof' career. For the majority of today's job seekers, job searching is a full time occupation. The author has experienced most (if not all), of the related issues surrounding job searching, applying for positions electronically, dealing with temporary agencies, scams and schemes galore.
