dark jeans business casual: The Job Search Navigator Matt Durfee, 2015-12-21 “A no-holds-barred view of career management in a turbulent world . . . provides a reality-based perspective that should be of value to all who read [it].” —Len Schlesinger, president emeritus at Babson College, Baker Foundation professor, Harvard Business School In these uncertain times, The Job Search Navigator is a reliable guide to every step of the twenty-first–century job hunt, whether readers are laid off, wanting to change careers after surviving cutbacks, or seeking a better full-time gig in a stagnant marketplace. Author Matt Durfee writes from the perspective of someone who has both recruited for some of America’s biggest companies and navigated his way through nine of his own job losses. The book combines practical real-world perspectives with the technical knowledge job seekers need in order to excel at every aspect of their searches. Drawing on the knowledge Durfee accumulated through his own experiences, searches, and big-brand corporate hiring responsibilities, The Job Search Navigator abandons the “clinical approach” of many other career-advice books. Instead, Durfee gives easy-to-follow strategies and, perhaps more importantly, recounts in illuminating detail the kinds of mistakes that led him to develop these strategies. “From the strategic to the emotional to the tactical—this is one of the most practical and useful books on career management I’ve read in a very, very long time.” —L. Kevin Cox, chief human resources officer, American Express Company “Matt’s expertise in this space is unmatched. We live in a world where constant reinvention is the rule and The Job Search Navigator is essential reading for those who want to take control of their career trajectory.” —Scott Westerman, executive director & associate vice president for alumni relations, Michigan State University |

dark jeans business casual: The Teachers' Lounge (Uncensored) Kelly Flynn, 2012-11-08 Teachers step to the front of the classroom every day and do their darnedest to capture their student’s attention and keep it. But so many things get in the way: unruly kids, disagreeable parents, homes so broken it is beyond imagining, bureaucracy and red tape, the influence of technology and the media, a culture that celebrates misguided values, and most intrusively, government regulations that purport to improve teaching and learning, but in fact, are destroying it. The Teachers’ Lounge (Uncensored) gives you a peek inside that classroom. Kelly Flynn takes readers by the hand and says, “Come inside my school, walk a mile in my halls, and then we’ll talk about education reform.” With breathtaking clarity and a healthy dose of humor Kelly Flynn shares with readers what all teachers know; that when you teach in a public school there are days that you laugh, days that you cry, and days that you laugh until you cry. Each student is surprisingly, delightfully, wildly different, which is precisely why one-size-fits-all education does not work. |

When her brother drags her to a business meeting with his boss, notorious criminal and billionaire, Jericho, Annie Brennan is forced to attend. She doesn't know Bruce has borrowed an exorbitant amount of money from him with no way to pay him off except by handing over the deed to their house. The house Annie's been living in her entire life, even after her parents died in a car accident. She gets no say. She's not even on the deed. Jericho moves in the next morning and there's nothing Annie can do about it. She hates everything about him. His lifestyle, his arrogance, the intensity in his pale green whenever he looks at her. Until he saves her from an attack by killing her attacker in front of her. Something changes. A switch is flipped. She's smitten. But Jericho can't buy his way out of prison forever. When a body from her past turns up with all fingers pointing to Jericho, Annie must choose between the safe, quiet life as an accountant or allow herself to be corrupted by a flawless murderer with blood on his hands. |
