While it has several good points, this book, like the companion book "What Color is Your Parachute", suffers from a lack of understanding of how quickly things change on the Internet. This book (and the companion) still publishes the same tired source-of-hire data that has been around since about 2001. Up to 24% of jobs come from the NEWSPAPER? (That's a statistic from SHRM in 1997, back when Netscape still dominated the Web browser war.) Every reliable source I've read since 2005 indicates that jobs are so..
Easily the best book about job hunting using the Internet I have found, and one of the better all around books on job-hunting, period. Unlike many other books on the subject, it is not just a list of websites, soon to be outdated. Though hundreds of websites are listed, that isn't the book's focus; instead, the authors talk about different job hunting approaches, the effectiveness of these various methods, and how the Internet can be used to increase the chances of finding a job, regardless of the approach..
"Job-Hunting Online" by Mark and Richard Bolles is a good source of information for the job seeker who wishes to use the internet as a source.The book contains several different job sites, some well-known (Craigslist, etc.) and others not so well-known. Under each listing there is a brief description of what the user can expect to see at the particular web site. There are also other helpful web sites such as the ones that describe salary ranges for different occupations.A good resource. Recommended.
