Purple Squirrel: Stand Out, Land Interviews and Master the Modern Job Market by Michael B JungeMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Until now, I haven't delved much into literature and common practices for landing interviews and preparing yourself as a stand-out candidate. Although Michael B. Junge's advice primarily fits a business model, I found what I believe are appropriate tips and advice for pursuing positions in education and I imagine numerous other professions. Since I am unfamiliar with other similar types of literature, I cannot compare the uniqueness of his advice and insight, but am personally satisfied by his presentation and information and have been much more motivated to put together resumes, cover letters, portfolios and lists of potential employers than I would have been otherwise - so in that sense, a definite win!

A few other notes:
I'm pursuing some job opportunities. Primarily in higher education. A few at home in Wyoming and a few here in South Korea.
That's all I'm willing to say about future plans for the time being in case some of my friends are curious. Or in case some strangers are stumbling upon this page.
