Jeffrey E. Christian

Random House, 2002

Do not have to be a CEO to benefit here
At first glance, it would seem that this wonderful read was intended solely for those running billion dollar companies (those multi-million concerns can get by without a ferocity for talent). Glance again. Everything Mr. Christian says is just as true for the 150-employee distributor or metal-stamping company as it is for the colossal tech firm. Human beings ARE the corporation. They dictate the ...

Harcourt, 2007

Airmen and Headhunters
The book is a fascinating and well told story of a crew of young aviators who were shot down during a bombing mission to Brunei Bay, Borneo, on 16 November 1944. The Japanese fleet was refitting after losing the naval engagements in the Philippines in October and the 5th Heavy Bombardment wing was sent on an air strike to further damage the fleet - flying in at about 9,000 feet - a pretty low ...

Darrell W. Gurney

Hunter Arts Publishing, 2000

Drop kick me, D.G., through the goalposts of a great search!
Darrell Gurney is an amusing writer, who judiciously utilizes humor at a time when many of us need it the most: "Ugh! How am I ever going to find a job in this economy?" Well, if you "walk the talk" this book serves up, you're halfway there. As a child I was told, half in jest, that the mark of an intelligent person was his or her ability to follow directions. The first step is: BUY THIS BOOK. ...

Headhunters: Matchmaking in the Labor Market

William Finlay, James E. Coverdill

ILR Press, 2007

Best comprehensive headhunting book for headhunters
I have been working in this field for 25 years, and read most of the major books. Although I am a big fan of Bill Radin, this book blew me away. Perhaps it's social science orientation rather than "war stories" that you find in other books of this ilk. True, as another reviewer says it does not have a major web focus, but the web is a tool and more for HR than headhunters. Companies don't pay 5, ...

Ask the Headhunter: Reinventing the Interview to Win the Job

Nick A. Corcodilos

Plume, 1997

At last original content when it comes to job interviews
I must say I really found Nick Corcodilos' take on job interviewing refreshing. He clearly states that we spend far too much time trying to answer specific questions. We should take control of the job interview and show the hiring person that we can do the job. I find much of his information very valid and very worthwhile. Is is always practical, maybe not. I like that he emphasizes you ...

Michael Slade

New American Library, 2001

Special X #1
The first in Michael Slade's masterful Special X series is a roller-coaster ride from the first page to the last. Headhunter is a novel ahead of it's time. Before the general public knew what "criminal profiling" was, Slade was introducing his readers to deranged inner working of the psychotic mind, and how a modern police force hunts those psychos down. Because of this Headhunter is still a ...

Colin Ward, Steve "Hickey" Hickmott

Headline Book Publishing, 2000

Superb story!
I was a little cautious during the first chapter, but this actually turned out to be a great book! The book has some stories of violence, fighting, etc. that you find in other books about football violence. However, it shifts the focus from the crowd control tactics that are detailed in other books, but speaks of the undercover tactics that the police used, and the deceipt and fabricated ...

Jack London comes alive
I have always been a Jack London fan. However, every one of his stories has long since been read and reread by me and millions of others out there. Now, we have something new to hold onto, even if it is for just a short time. Thank you Gary and Tom for giving me Jack London once again. Perhaps one of you could sign the book for me sometime. What a pleasure. Thank you for intriguing ...

Headhunters Confidential! 125 Insider Secrets to Landing Your Dream Job

Alan R. Schonberg, Robert L. Shook

McGraw-Hill Companies, 2000

Great Tips
Written in a very breezy style, this book is full of surprisingly good tips and advice about the job market. Some of it is common sense, but common sense to a professional headhunter might not occur to someone who doesn't look for a new job every day of the year. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to make a career change, but particularly to anyone fairly new to the job market. Many of the ...

John Wassner

Summersdale Publishers, 2001

Fun Read
So I bought this book for like $2.50 at a book sale because I thought it looked interesting and I like buying books for only $2.50. So a few days later I started reading it. It was surprisingly funny and informative. It didn't quite compare to the works of Wade Davis, but I enjoyed seeing the jungles of Borneo from the perspective of a non-scientist, the author is actually in the advertising ...

This is one of my top favorite book out of the series. It is mostly for young readers, but I have found this book quite enjoyable, even though I am no longer a child. Good for all ages in my opinion. A must read.

Be Hunted! 12 Secrets to Getting on the Headhunter's Radar Screen

Wiley, 2001

Thorough Primer
"Be Hunted" is a very thorough primer on the various ways one can attract the attention of search consultants. For many, this book can provide a rare and useful insight into the intricacies of the search profession, as well as the candidate/recruiter relationship. But as a seasoned search consultant myself, I believe it's important that the reader understand that "getting on the search ...
