Career X Roads - a view from a HR Pro

I've been involved with recruiting/sourcing/hiring for more than 25 years, and this is simply the best overview of job sites and job search information available. It is a "must have" for those individuals searching for a new job or career, and a resource of "best practices" in Internet Search job sites.

A helpful listing

While it is not possible to publish a totally updated listing of this type (due to constant turnover), it is nevertheless a helpful listing of many of the major sites used by job seekers and recruiting entities. Put it on your bookshelf.Wayne D. Ford, Ph.D., author, "Breakthrough Technical Recruiting" docwifford@msn.com

A well spring of useful information

The information is presented in a very readable and understandable style. If you are searching for expert answers and resources both free and paid are presented here. This is soooooooo good I can not stop reading, searching and refering back to it. If anyone really calls themselves a Professional Recruiter they need to have this book as desk side reference.

It doesn't get any better than this...oh yes it does!

Thanks to up-to-the-minute Internet websites, candidate sourcing information, and the progressive techniques contained in this latest of five editions of CAREERXROADS, we are confident that we will eclipse our average staffing performance metrics achieved over the past 5 years. These metrics (which were primarily attained in pharmaceutical, technology, training services, and staff augmentation environments) include: number-of-hires (75% were from the Internet), time-to-hire (48 days), cost-per-hire ($3,800), and customer satisfaction (89%). Free e-mail updates increase the value of this user-friendly candidate sourcing tool for the successful Internet recruiter.
