OK, job hunters, here’s the short of it: First came the elevator pitch, the project idea or résumé brief enough to recite while riding from the lobby to a higher floor. Now authors Susan Britton Whitcomb, Chandlee Bryan and Deb Dib bring you the short, tweet Twitterized job search, in which people relay their experience and potential value 140 characters at a time.

Harvey McKay, author, New York Times #1 Bestseller, How to Swim with the Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive.
I love this book for a lot of reasons. It’s smart, focused, helpful, comprehensive and easy to ‘get,’ and it really makes the most of the power of collaboration. Whether you’re searching for a new job, reevaluating your career, or just thinking about how to best market yourself, this book can be a big help. It delves deeply into what makes Twitter so powerful and how to tap into its potential as a valuable career resource.

This is not the first book on Twitter and won’t be the last, but it is very likely the only one you’ll ever need for your career. Thorough, easy to follow, beautifully organized, and filled with instantly actionable “how-tos.”
