Description

"I've had some incredible personal growth from this book. The patterns that emerged from the exercises are enlightening. I'm finally saying 'enough is enough'. I have to stop going for the money and get a job that will energize instead of draining me. Without this book, I'd probably go back to the same bad-fit, stress-filled, long-commute type of job. So a heartfelt thank you!" A.B.

Interview with the author:

Why did you write this book?

Throughout the 10 years experience in coaching and employment counseling, I noticed that introverts feel more challenged when it comes to job hunting. Being an introvert myself, I want to help them become more successful in a professional world that seems more impressed with the extroverted behavior.

How is this book different from other job search books?

The tips and strategies from this practical book help introverts shift the perception from feeling a victim to creating a strategy mix that meets the employer midway, while staying true to their introverted nature. It also encourages the readers to become project managers of their own job search project, and make it more effective by using their strengths.

What's inside the book?

  • 167 introvert strengths and how to apply them in job hunting, to tap into the hidden job market and increase the chances to stand out.
  • Real examples of successful introverted job-seekers, Linkedin for job hunting, resume & interview tips and 21 job search strategies fitting introvert's personality.
  • Self-reflection exercises to help readers understand the weakest aspects of their job search process, and how to strengthen them.

Who could benefit from this book?

  • Introverts willing to find the desired job and build a rewarding career
  • Students preparing to enter the job market
  • Recruiters, Career Coaches, Employment Counselors serving introverted job seekers
  • HR Professionals and Hiring Managers, to tap into introverts' power to achieve better results
  • Parents of introverted students
  • Anyone else interested in learning new job strategies to accelerate the job hunting process

Reviews

A thought-provoking book for those who are seeking a job. As a former hiring manager, it was always easy to "read" the extroverts, but it was much harder to ascertain the introverts' true personality and working style. This book addresses this issue and offers wisdom to introverts to land the best job for them." Kandi Johnson

I've had some incredible personal growth from this book. The patterns that emerged from the exercises are enlightening. I'm finally saying 'enough is enough'.

I cannot get over the wealth of information on job search for introverts presented in this book. The author understands the specific hurdles introverts face while searching for a job (and in life). StaceyK

Gabriela has created a caring guide that leaves you feeling empowered and proactive. She never expects you to be an extrovert, instead helps you leverage your strengths. Rebecca of Amazon

This book is insanely good. It addresses the core issues you are having trouble getting your dream job - how you feel about yourself and what you can bring to a company - which you translate unconsciously in your speech and body language in the interview. It addresses what you want out of a job in order to be happy. It's job searching with purpose, with a goal in mind. Plus, it has some job searching tips I haven't read anywhere. Usaghi Tsukino
