December 4, 2000: JobHuntersBible.com
JobHuntersBible.com.
We got a little lost on this site, and not because navigation is difficult, but because
there's so much interesting stuff here to check out. Richard Nelson Bolles, guru behind the
phenomenally popular What Color is Your Parachute?, is also the brains behind this
helpful Web site.
We've always felt that Bolles' approach in "Parachute" was particularly well suited
to career changers, perhaps even more than
to entry-level jobseekers. And JobHuntersBible.com is true to form, offering abundant
information to those seeking to leave one career for another.
The site consists of Bolles' guide to jobhunting on the Internet along with a collection
of articles written by Bolles and two other experts. Many of the articles are
excellent for career-changers, and the site also offers an advice column by Bob
Rosner called "The Working Wounded" to help people better cope with the problems
they face in their current jobs.
Few experts are as uniquely qualified to offer career guidance as Bolles is,
so his site is a "must-see" for career-changers and, indeed, all jobseekers.
