“If it’s your job to eat a frog, it’s best to do it first thing in the morning. And if it’s your job to eat two frogs, it’s best to eat the biggest one first.” - Mark Twain

Looking for a job is notoriously one of the most stressful things in life. There are many steps in the process, and each step is another risk of failure or rejection. Until you land what you are - or are not - looking for, hunting for a job can feel like overwhelming.

The trick is to remain levelheaded at approaching the steps one by one. This book is aimed at helping you do just that. We will take you step-by-step through the process with examples, worksheets, brainstorming sessions, and more.
