Synopsis No-Nonsense Job Interviews by : Arnold G. Boldt
Job interviews have changed dramatically in recent years. The questions asked drill deeply into a candidate’s personality and behavior, not just his or her job qualifications. The cost of hiring and retaining good employees compels employers to be much more careful about whom they hire, leading to more in-depth interviews. In this companion to No-Nonsense Resumes and No-Nonsense Cover Letters, Arnold Boldt takes you step-by-step from interview preparation to performance to follow-up. It is for candidates of any type: entry level, blue-collar, mid-career, and senior-level managers. No-Nonsense Job Interviews begins with the many different types of job interviews and the key interviewing techniques. You’ll see the most common and toughest interview questions and the best way to answer them. The book shows you how to research the company, ask the interviewer questions, and evaluate your performance. Also included are specific tips from professional career coaches, plus samples of thank-you letters and other correspondence related to the job-interview process.

Synopsis The Professor Is In by : Karen Kelsky
The definitive career guide for grad students, adjuncts, post-docs and anyone else eager to get tenure or turn their Ph.D. into their ideal job Each year tens of thousands of students will, after years of hard work and enormous amounts of money, earn their Ph.D. And each year only a small percentage of them will land a job that justifies and rewards their investment. For every comfortably tenured professor or well-paid former academic, there are countless underpaid and overworked adjuncts, and many more who simply give up in frustration. Those who do make it share an important asset that separates them from the pack: they have a plan. They understand exactly what they need to do to set themselves up for success. They know what really moves the needle in academic job searches, how to avoid the all-too-common mistakes that sink so many of their peers, and how to decide when to point their Ph.D. toward other, non-academic options. Karen Kelsky has made it her mission to help readers join the select few who get the most out of their Ph.D. As a former tenured professor and department head who oversaw numerous academic job searches, she knows from experience exactly what gets an academic applicant a job. And as the creator of the popular and widely respected advice site The Professor is In, she has helped countless Ph.D.’s turn themselves into stronger applicants and land their dream careers. Now, for the first time ever, Karen has poured all her best advice into a single handy guide that addresses the most important issues facing any Ph.D., including: -When, where, and what to publish -Writing a foolproof grant application -Cultivating references and crafting the perfect CV -Acing the job talk and campus interview -Avoiding the adjunct trap -Making the leap to nonacademic work, when the time is right The Professor Is In addresses all of these issues, and many more.

Synopsis An Editor's Guide to Writing and Publishing Science by : Michael Hochberg
A good research paper is more than just a clear, concise, scientific expose. It is a document that needs to go beyond the science to attract attention. There are both strict and less definable norms for doing this, but many authors are unaware as to what they are or their use. Publishing is rapidly changing, and needs to be explained with a fresh perspective. Simply writing good, clear, concise, science is no longer enough-there is a different mind-set now required that students need to adopt if they are to succeed. The purpose of this book is to provide the foundations of this new approach for both young scientists at the start of their careers, as well as for more experienced scientists to teach the younger generation. Most importantly, the book will make the reader think in a fresh, creative, and novel way about writing and publishing science. This is an introductory guide suitable for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and professional researchers in both the life and physical sciences.
