No doubt this is the best tool out there...
Over 1 million Rapid Guides have been used by colleges, workforce agencies, One-Stops, Career Centers and other organizations to educate people on topics including how to find a job, layoff survival, interviewing, financial aid, scholarships, youth services.
Hundreds of organizations use Rapid Guides because it allows them a cost effective way to both educate these readers and promote their services. This is because every Rapid Guide is customized for the organization to include their logo, colors, branding, location and contact information and any other customizations needed.
These are great because Rapid Guides are not like your typical tools that are printed in massive quantities – making their information too generic and information out dated. Each Rapid Guide is custom, new and fresh. Just look at the great examples shown at http://rapidguide.net/Rapid-Guide-Main-Pages/customer-examples.html.
The value of this is clearly represented by the testimonials from Colleges, One-Stops and Workforce Centers at http://rapidguide.net/Rapid-Guide-Main-Pages/rapid-guide-testimonials.html.
Organizations love how Rapid Guides are compact, long-lasting and low cost and how they drive more traffic to the orginaztion website and physical centers. Readers love how the information is concise, easy to understand and apply. They are even available in Spanish.
You have probably seen these best sellers in the marketplace:
Rapid Guide to Job Hunting
Rapid Guide to Interviewing
Rapid Guide to Layoff Survival
Rapid Guide to Financial Aid

The online strategic job search management system (SJSMS) allows job seekers to manage their contacts as well as the job search process. Unlike traditional contact management applications, SJSMS allows you to monitor and manage your progress through the job search, either on your own or with the help of a job coach.
The SJSMS works at two levels, 1) it monitors your Dream job opportunities or as the system refers to, your Job A. In addition to your Job A, it also allows you to monitor other jobs that increase your chances of getting your Job A sometime in the future. Unfortunately, due to supply and demand, you may not always be able to get your Job A right away. Conducting a strategic job search includes the identification of competencies that your Job A requires and how you can build them up by taking a Job B that may possess one or more of those requirements.
There are two types of users for the SJSMS, 1) job seekers, and 2) job coaches. If you’re looking for employment on your own, you would simply sign up for an account and manage your own job search. However, if you’re working with a job coach, your account will be tied to the coach so that ongoing feedback can be provided throughout the job search process, which includes file sharing (i.e. resumes, cover letters),a messenger, sharing of job opportunities and real-time feedback.
Additionally, the SJSMS allows you to recycle job leads back to the community so that others can benefit from leads.

By following the step by step video instructions, you will have a competitive advantage over the thousands of other job hunters vying for work.
A Word From The Author:
Back when this whole economy meltdown hit, I was affected just like everyone else, and so, I had some time on my hands. I started taking notice of all the career tips, resume tips, how to's and so forth going out to all those out of work people and what I realized was that, while everyone was trying to help....nobody was giving them the simple basics of correctly conducting a job search first!!! In a good friends description....the internet was simply "Noisy" ....full of pieces that would only fit if you had the blueprint, which everybody wrongly assumed everyone else possessed, and forgetting that the vast majority of these people haven't had to even think about a different job for many, many years...let alone actually have to navigate the career minefield in a major recession!!!. So....Thus started this project and it has become a valuable tool in helping people find a job in this economy.
KEY FEATURES:
1) This video provides a start to finish blueprint on the correct method of searching for a job. Unlike other videos that make up a series and can end up costing a small fortune... or seminars that may take even more valuable time than you would like, this video has all the fluff removed and the meat and potatoes of it all are condensed into a tolerable 30 min. video that can be viewed and understood in one sitting.
2) Insider tips from a seasoned recruiter. No "sales" pitch here....just plain, across the table, straight shooting.
3) Helpful graphics and portrayals to illustrate key points.
4) No Industry jargon here or tasks that require above average intelligence or skills...this video is presented in an understandable, organized and workable format for anyone at any level of the workforce and is as applicable to the gardener as it is to the Corporate CEO.
