Robert Olsen

A Powerful Account of Triumph Over Adversity

"Over the years I have read countless "how to books," but Paul Rega's new job search book was from the beginning much different. It was a powerful, engaging read where the author incorporates many of his personal career stories and insight about the job search process as an executive headhunter. This is by far the best job search book and career planning guide on the market. Mr. Rega's many years of experience as an executive recruiter was evident throughout the book. He shares his extensive knowledge of the job search process with many examples and advice that can only be gained from an expert in his field. His book gave me the insight and courage I needed to finally land a job in this difficult economy. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is serious about wanting to find a new job or change careers."
