- Job Search Tip of the Week, by Brian Krueger, author of "College Grad Job Hunter," the #1 book for entry level job search:

"The Solution Suggestion Technique"

You may be aware of a product introduction or ad campaign being conducted by an employer you are interested in. Or you may be a user of their product or service. If you have a valid suggestion for improvement, drop a note to a key person detailing this information. Most executives enjoy getting this kind of feedback direct from their customers and welcome honest suggestions. "A thought occurred to me while using your product . . ."

There are plenty of potential areas of focus with any company, among which are areas where you might be able to offer a benefit for the company. Do you feel you can add value by:

  • Increasing sales?
  • Expanding market share?
  • Increasing efficiency?
  • Upgrading technology?
  • Reducing production cycle time?
  • Reducing costs?

Remember, anything that you can provide as a potential benefit is reason enough to make contact. Find a potential problem and come up with your own basic solution to present to the company. It's an extra touch that very few college students would even consider attempting. It then provides you with the opportunity to ask about employment opportunities. And it may provide your entry point into the company.

- Job Search Book Online

There are at least two other entry level Web sites that offer books on job searching, proclaming that they will tell you everything you need to know about entry level job search.

However, there is a very important point about these books they don't mention up front: they cost money.

At CollegeGrad.com, we give you two things they don't:

    1. The #1 entry level job search book ("College Grad Job Hunter").
    2. It's free.

It's that simple. So don't buy the hype. Read the real information you need for FREE:

Don't ever pay for books or reports or resources of lower quality when you can access the very best quality information for free.

P.S. Yes, you can buy "College Grad Job Hunter" in hardcopy format as well at Amazon.com for $15 (actually, 30% off that price), but the online version is better. Why? Because the version at Amazon.com (the 2003 edition) is being continually updated at CollegeGrad.com. So the most current version of the book is actually the online, free version.
