Winning in the Advertised Job Market
Winning in the Advertised Job Market teaches you about the approaches used by employers and recruiters to fill their jobs, with a few handy hints thrown in.
To win any game you need to know the rules, the playing conditions and the opposition (your competitors). You then need a game plan that takes these factors and your ability into account. In the advertised job market, an understanding of the statistics will help you understand the playing conditions and therefore develop your own foolproof plan.
