Job hunting is a different ballgame when you're holding a pink slip instead of a brand-new college diploma. The author offers essential advice for those who have recently been laid off, restructured, or plain fired. A tell-it-like-it-is bible of reemployment, it tackles both the practical and the emotional issues of job loss such as: how long to wait before launching yourself into the job arena, how to channel anger, fear, and revenge fantasies into useful job-search tactics, how to snag recommendations (and compensation) from ex-bosses, how to determine your interviewers' hiring problems and then present yourself as the solution.
