Unlike many books in this field that focus on the "Do's and Don'ts", I've written Becoming a High-Impact Candidate from a different perspective--that is, to help you think like a high-impact candidate. Applying the methodology contained within this book will enable you to conduct a successful job search in any job hunting situation--regardless of your field or "level" in an organization. This book contains over 200 pages of strategy, preparation, tools, techniques and real-life employment-related situations that are based on over 30 years of recruiting experience. The section dedicated to developing and writing high-impact resumes and cover letters is candidate-proven to increase the number of phone calls and interviews you will receive!
