"If you're looking for a job, you've probably realized that the typical tactics like cold calling and bombarding companies with resumes don't work well in today's recessionary job market." Perry advises, "Job-hunters should defy conventional wisdom and intensify their efforts during the holidays", because:
1. Hiring managers are preparing their staffing plans for 2009 right now;
2. It's easier to book appointments and get in to see people as December is generally a slower time for all businesses except retail; and
3. People like doing upbeat activities during the holidays and interviewing and hiring is one of them."
Labeled the "Rogue Recruiter" by the Wall Street Journal, Perry has re-engineered his unconventional Guerrilla approach for job hunters, covering all the basics of a winning campaign. Perry takes readers by the hand and guide them through the steps needed to build their careers. For the next 10 days offering up a free copy of "The 12 Days of Christmas Job Hunting" at
