Great Advice for the jobseeker.com

Dot-Com Decision, by Robert F. Wilson, is a great collection of advice on how to start and manage a career in the high-tech sector. The collected tips and advice include good ideas on identifying prospective employers, developing your resume, and evaluating the company, the compensation, and the culture. Particularly valuable is the advice on evaluating the company and its future viability--a key task in these uncertain days that will help untold thousands find steady employment in growing companies instead of having to conduct a new job search every six months.The tips on evaluating the company culture are also very good, and will help candidates evaluate whether prosective employers are a good match for their personalities and work skills.The information on stock options and other compensation issues is invaluable for newcomers or for industry veterans who want to negotiate a better package on their next foray into the job market.As someone already working in the high-tech field, I can honestly say that I wish I had this book when I was conducting my job search!
