From Jason Alba: TLDR: New book coming out titled The Principled Job Search! Sign up to get an email when it is available on this simple Google form: 

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc2-CG1T0s4cJBwqTGZSsC6o5BacrC1x7TFu2HG4JIZojXJxQ/viewform

Principles are time-tested and stand the test of time. And that’s what this book is about. I’m no t giving a job search system or program (you can find that here), rather I’m sharing principles that can help with whatever system or program you implement.

This book is also a collection of truths I’ve learned along the way, since My Big Fat Failed Job Search of 2006. I’ve learned from countless mentors and job search experts. I’ve learned from many job seekers at various levels from different industries and different locations.

If you are interested in getting this book, please leave your email address on this form.
