Rating: Summary: Successful Recruiters Will Use This Book Review: The CareerXRoads series by Gerry Crispin and Mark Mehler should be a reference book that every recruiter buys. I am a recruiter with almost 22 years of experience and since 1998, I have purchased CareerXRoads. It is that good.Candidates who want to use the Internet to find their next position will also find these books very helpful. Gerry and Mark include informative articles for recruiters and job seekers alike at the beginning of the book. Then they dive into the Internet and review websites that are job, resume, and career management sites. Their reviews are very helpful. Recruiters, this book helps you determine where to spend your time and/or money to find niche sites to conduct searches. They also will suggest when a site may just be a waste of time. Candidates, Gerry and Mark help you organize your job search. Their list of niche sites may help you zero in on companies who do what you want to do. Then, you may apply online or try to network your way into an interview. Bottom line, if you are a recruiter or a candidate, purchase CareerXRoads. Bill Humbert www.recruiterguy.com
