The 2-Hour Job Search with Steve Dalton

Online job postings have fundamentally changed the job search.  Hiring managers increasingly rely on referrals to avoid reviewing hundreds of resumes per posting.  However, job seekers find the convenience of online postings irresistible, pouring countless hours into an inherently ineffective approach.
 
Instead of providing laundry lists of “tips” without regard to how long each one takes to implement, The 2-Hour Job Search provides step-by-step, time-limited instructions for the vaguest and most difficult part of the job search – getting that first interview.  This research-based process splits the post-campus job search into its three main components – Prioritization, Outreach, & Informational Interviewing – and helps job seekers get underway: quickly, efficiently, and effectively.

Steve Dalton is a senior career consultant and associate director at Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business. He holds his own MBA from the same institution.
