University of Houston, Career Planning and Placement Center: Desribed as having a special focus on college students and recent college grads, Quintessential Career and Job-Hunting Resources was named as one of the Monthly Hot Spots by the University of Houston, Career Planning and Placement Center.

Listed as a Hot Site in the Spring 1997 issue of The Node, the career-related newsletter of Canada's National Graduate Register. The review states: A great site with all sorts of career and job-hunting resources, advice about interviews, resumes and cover letters.

Bowling Green State University: In being selected as a Site of the Week (4/7/97) by the Bowling Green State University Career Services Office, the Quintessential Career and Job-Hunting Resources Guide was described as: A site with resources from career experts on resumes and cover letters as well as links to hundreds of career resources and job pages.

In being selected with a NBNSOFT Content Award, presented to "the best that's newest on the Net," this site was given the following review: This job-seeking guide by Dr. Randall Hansen of Stetson University doesn't stop by merely guiding you to the best online employment resources -- it shows you how to really make use of them. Many features are housed here including tips on how to write effective cover letters and resumes, test your interviewing skills, find job leads, and promote yourself on the Internet. Also making this Guide a rare find... it doesn't just lead you to U.S. resources, but rather, those located around the world!

Prentice Hall: In being selected as a Website of the Week (12/2/96) by Prentice Hall's Learning on the Internet Partnership, the Quintessential Career and Job-Hunting Resources Guide was described as: Randall Hansen is a marketing professor at Stetson University and he has put together this complete job resource guide that I encourage all of you to take a look at. Unlike many of the other career sites on the Internet, the best part of this site is that it is targeted mainly at new college grads. You will find well written and detailed advice on each step of the job hunting process from evaluating your marketability, to writing a good cover letter, to writing a resume, interviewing, and finally locating the dream job! Start at the top and work your way down -- you should have a job by the time you reach the end of this page.

YPN: This little, but useful, Website is dedicated to the hordes of youthful jobseekers disgorged onto the market every spring -- yes, recent college grads. The key to this site is its explication of "the Domino Effect" -- which it turns out has absolutely nothing to do with communisim in Southeast Asia and everything to do with not ending up delivering pizza for the rest of your life. The Dominos are the elements of an effective job search -- miss just one and you miss the job opportunity. The information here is of a basic nature, but basic is best when it comes to actually getting a job. Many of the resources are actually links to other Websites, but a bibliography on each topic is appended, making this site a good starting point for both on and off-Web searching.
