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

"Success Signals"

So you think you've aced the company site interview. You came fully prepared with knowledge about the company and the position. You answered all their questions without effort and wowed them with your behavioral examples. The assessments were a breeze, and you remembered the manners your mom taught you when you had lunch with the execs. You even managed to find common ground with your potential manager when you discovered that you are both fans of the same baseball team!

Once you have successfully made it to this point in the company interview process, you're probably wondering how many more hoops you have to jump through. Relax--following are some of the signals that an offer may be near:

• You are introduced to employees other than those with whom you interview.
• You are given a facility or plant tour.
• You are given information about the local area, including apartment rental guides.
• You are given relocation information.
• You are given employee-only materials, such as benefits guides and handbooks.
• You are given anything that you will be expected to return at a later date (such as CD training or software).
• You are introduced to or interview with your potential boss's boss.

- 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:

http://www.CollegeGrad.com/book

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 is being continually updated at CollegeGrad.com. So the most current version of the book is actually the online, free version.
