SlideShare, the YouTube of slide shows, offers new ways for job-seekers to present themselves and initiate a creative job search to get on the radar of recruiters and hiring managers.

In a blog post, the site tells job-seekers how they can research potential new employers, stay current on hiring trends and strengthen their personal brand through presentations.

A slideshow on the site, tells job-sekers and careerists how to manage their online presence.

And for more information about how job search and career management is changing, you can browse the Career category on SlideShare.net.

Our colleague, Rita Ashley, has a terrific offer going for the holidays.

Purchase her Networking Debugged or Job Search Debugged, job-search books, and get the other one free. Once you purchase a book, contact her with your email address and it will be her pleasure to send you the other book.

We’ve read these terrific, downloadable ebooks, and trust us, they are well worth your investment.

Here’s an excerpt from our review of Job Search Debugged:

Among the strengths of the rich, comprehensive Job Search Debugged is the fact that author Rita Ashley was a recruiter for many years, so she thoroughly understands the hiring process from the employer’s side of the desk. The other distinctive feature is that the book is filled with stories of clients and other job-seekers. Nothing beats real-life examples and anecdotes to get points across. Ashley is opinionated, and sometimes her positions clash -- refreshingly -- with conventional career-expert wisdom. She disdains, for example, the typical advice to be coy and guarded about one’s salary request when negotiating salary.
