    Observers tell us that we will have many jobs and possibly several careers during our lifetimes.  But there is very little practical help available for professionals on how to move between jobs and careers. 
This audiobook takes the listener through a comprehensive process that will help them to prepare for job search, identify job opportunities, and then maximize their chance of success. 
The author has worked with over 1,000 senior executives as a career coach.  So, his advice is practical and it is supported by real stories of successes and setbacks. 
Most people are not aware of the life skills required to manage successful transitions between jobs.  They tend work on their cv and then to make up their own approach to moving forward.   
They often aim too low.  They do not understand how to prepare properly.  It is not uncommon for them to fail to reach their potential.   When their approach does not work out they blame themselves.    
It does not need to be this way.  This audiobook increases the possibility of success in your transition process and then in your subsequent career. 
The original book was written for mid-career professionals.   But the process it describes is relevant for individuals at any stage on their career, from graduation to retirement. 
This audiobook has four parts: 
1.    Understanding the basics 
2.    Building on your strengths 
3.    Growing the power of your network 
4.    Finding the right job.

It's an epidemic full of stress, rejection, and guesswork... but it doesn't have to be for you. 
The Obvious Candidate was written to help job seekers, just like you, cast a spotlight on themselves that companies can't miss and also discover exactly what it takes to land their dream job in record time. 
It DOES happen by following the right system that cuts through the noise and teaches you how to market, sell, and position yourself as the irresistible choice. 
That DOESN'T happen by following traditional, outdated advice that leaves them with more questions than answers. 
Use these timeless secrets and strategies to become the ONE who stands out over your competition and takes command of your career!
