From Alison Doyle, your Guide to Job Searching
I know there's a school of thought that says that you shouldn't take your job search with you on vacation. Instead, you should use your vacation as a time to relax and recharge. However, in this competitive job market can you afford to pass up a job opportunity because an employer couldn't reach you?

Taking Your Job Search on Vacation
In my opinion, when you're job searching, it's important to be available - even if it's just checking email and voicemail a couple of times a day. You don't want to miss out on a job opportunity because you're out of touch and unavailable. It's important to be able to respond in a timely manner to prospective employers.

Internet Your Way to a New Job
The new edition of Internet Your Way to a New Job includes all the information job seekers need to market themselves effectively in this competitive environment including using social networking (LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter) to maximize your job search potential. There's also a brand new chapter full of tips from leading career experts.

Getting Fired for No Reason
I'm asked about getting fired for no reason quite often. Site readers wonder if it's legal to fire someone without a reason and what they can do if they have been fired.

Resume Styles
There are several different styles of resumes used to apply for job openings. Depending on your employment history, resume options include chronological, functional, combination, or targeted resumes.
