Lowstuter's "In Search of the Perfect Job" was excellent in its first edition. The second edition is even better. As a marketer, I like how the book begins with personal strategic planning -- defining what you offer, and what constitutes a great work "fit" for you -- and progresses into the tactics with which you can identify target companies, tell your story, and negotiate offers. This is an insightful, practical, personal strategic planning tool for executives, and for those who aspire to be. While the book is organized for those actively conducting an executive job search, the thought processes and exercises are also very helpful for anyone wanting to proactively take steps toward achieving greater satisfaction in their career. Someone considering entrepreneurship after working in established corporate environments will likely find Chapter 6 quite relevant and useful. I've bought multiple copies of this book to give to people I know who can benefit from it -- I think it's that good.

I would highly recommend this book for anyone going through a career transition. Excellent help with every step of the process, even with steps you probably did not know existed in advance. Don't jump in without first reading this!

We run a not for profit agency dedicated to teaching people how to put together a successful job search. Clyde Lowstuter's book is an amazing tool--very practical with many worksheets and exercises that put structure into the job search process. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is in a job search, but even for those who may be considering a change in job.
