Rites of Passage at $100,000 +: The Insider’s Lifetime Guide to Executive Job-Changing and Faster Career Progress: John Lucht
Editorial Reviews
John Lucht, an executive recruiter during the past three decades for some of America’s top corporations, knows what it takes to snag a new six-figure job. Rites of Passage at $100,000 to $1 Million+ is his newly revised guide to the ins and outs of a search for a job that ends in success. It promises a “comprehensive cram course in accelerating your career”–a contemporary corporate equivalent of the traditional initiation into adulthood from which it takes its title–updated for the cyber-age. And it delivers, with Lucht offering inside tips on the basic routes to a new executive-level position: personal contacts (i.e., “ask for a reference instead of a job”); networking (”never fail to get into the office of anyone whose name is mentioned to you, never depart with less than three new names”); executive recruiters (”understand their hidden financial arrangements”); direct mail (”write to the CEO or a person two levels above your target job”); and the Internet (”insert plenty of the right ‘keywords’ so that the computer will find your resume”). Extensive online references are also included throughout, and the material is presented in a way that’s easy to understand and implement. –Howard Rothman
