After reading this article, you'll have enough information to decide whether Jobpreneurship 101 is the guide you need to finally get the job you deserve.Can you really get a job by mimicking successful people?First, there's plenty of power in copying the success of others. If you were flying to Africa for the first time, would you rather create your own flight plan and hope it worked or put your trust in the people who already made it there successfully? Too often we try to blaze our own paths, while the true way to get the job you want is much easier.Don't insiders have an easier time getting a job than outsiders?Jobpreneurship 101 advocates practicing what successful people did, so you already know the course to take. More importantly, you are shown the process that insiders take (since we all know that insiders have a much bigger advantage that all of us waiting outside). One of the aspects of the book that I liked was it was written by a hiring manager and endorsed by executives, so the insider path that is presented has already been tried and approved by people high up on the corporate ladder.Isn't every job different? Why does it have to be so hard??A lot of people think that there's no pattern in looking for a job, but the secret is that there are plenty of tips that speed up the process. With a menu full of specialties and a "have it your way" attitude, how do you think fast food restaurants can still be so…fast?? They have a plan that they know works, and they do it over and over for each new order. The same principle applies to your job search.Why does have a career management process matter?Jobpreneurship 101 gives you a clear description of the job hunting process so that you can be prepared for each step along the way. This tried and true process not only makes applying for jobs quicker, but it also makes getting your job quicker. Even better, the book shows you how to apply this process consistently throughout your career, so that as soon as you get the job you want now, you can begin moving on to the next job in your future.Am I going to have to learn new skills?Personal development is a hot topic on the job front. Would you rather be the grandmother who still uses a rotary phone, or would you rather be the hip grandma who tweets her adventures and ROFLs with her dedicated Facebook fans? Just like grandma had to learn a few things to enjoy a complex 21st century life, you will also need to have a few tricks up your sleeve to get the job you want.Can I really trust what this guy has to say?There are plenty of scam artists out there, waiting to take your money and leaving you with the dead-end job (or no job!) that you started with. The good news is that the author, Jim Villwock, has 21 years in high corporate positions and has produced four successful start-up companies, so he knows what he's talking about. Whether you're a recent grad, a job changer, or a long-time employee, you can be certain that he's giving tips that aren't stuck in the past. It's also pretty cool that he's supported by Vistage, the world's largest CEO organization, so he can give you plenty of networking advice to stay on the cutting edge.So there you have the three critical elements that set Jobpreneurship 101 apart and make it a required read for getting the job you deserve. First, you'll learn how to mimic successful people. Second, you'll get a detailed look at the insider job hunting process. Finally, you'll get advice on personal development actions that make you an ideal candidate. If you ignore these three required elements, you are dooming yourself to failure, so put these elements into practice and watch those interviewers fight for your voicemail space!
