Job Search

Job Search, Third Edition, the second book in Lock's three-book career planning series, is a comprehensive guide to what an individual must do to find employment. The Third Edition presents the latest information available to help readers select and plan a successful job search, including new information on occupational alternatives, skills, and training requirements. Lock provides the ''nuts and bolts'' of job hunting. The developing sources of job leads, completing employment applications, preparing resumes and cover letters, and interviewing techniques. And he gives readers much more: a discussion of how to understand corporate culture, an in-depth look at how to examine different geographic areas for growth in population and employment opportunities, how to evaluate employment offers, and how to develop the skills necessary to keep a job.
