Book Review: #EntryLevelTweet

by | Mar 11, 2010

Cover: #EntryLevelTweet

For the most part, pending and recent graduates do not know how to search for a job.

There’s a strong need for quick, easy-to-digest information about entry-level job searching.

So @heatherhuhman wrote ‘#ENTRYLEVELtweet’ to fulfill that need.

I wish I could say I was creative enough to have come up with the comments above, all of which are under 140 characters. But I am not.

Heather Huhman, however, is.  And she’s created a simple, effective book, chock full of job search advice for the Twitter generation, all delivered in snippets of 140 characters or less.

Readers will easily digest the practical wisdom doled out in the book, on subjects including identifying your “unique you,” developing career tools, networking, applying for internships and entry-level jobs, accepting and rejecting offers, and succeeding on the job.

Huhman, Founder and President of Come Recommended, is an expert on helping students and recent college graduates pursue their dream careers. Besides her website, she has nearly 9,000 followers on Twitter, is a career expert for the CAREEREALISM Twitter Advice Project, the job search expert for Campus Calm, a contributor to One Day, One Job, One Day, One Internship, Intern Advocate and Personal Branding Blog and author of the e-books Relocating for an Entry-Level Job: Why You Probably Have to & How to Do It (2010) and Gen Y Meets the Workforce: Launching Your Career During Economic Uncertainty (2008).

My favorite tweet: Individuals in your life love you dearly and give you advice with the best intentions. But they’re probably wrong.

#EntryLevelTweet is powerful in its simplicity, and makes for an easy read. It would also make a great gift for upcoming graduates and entry level job seekers you know.

I help higher ed professionals take control of their careers with tailored services including resume and CV development, LinkedIn profile optimization and networking strategy, interview coaching, and one-on-one career guidance.

I can enthusiastically recommend Sean’s services as a career coach. He was the only coach I could find who understood how higher education works and the intricacies of the hiring process.

Sean’s advice, resume, and cover letter work is excellent, but the most helpful for me was his interview prep. The practice sessions were incredibly helpful and significantly boosted my confidence in interviews. 10 out of 10.

Thanks.
