  Essential Reading for Serious Job Seekers

  There are so many great new career and job search strategy resources out there I can barely contain myself. In addition to what I write, have purchased, and discover while surfing the internet - with a purpose, of course! - I am usually holding no less than 10 library books hostage, as well. And yes, I'm that person who will renew my books until they practically send the Library Gestapo after me!
  
  I guess now you understand why I stress the importance of using the library as a resource. However, I always invest in my favorites, even if I've read them at the library. That way I'll have it as a reference going forward. You can check out a few of my favorites in the Urban Career Coach Top Job Candidate™ Resource Center.
