This book reveals the step-by-step formula that thousands of people have used to get great jobs, even in terrible economies.

The author of this book, Charlie Hoehn, struggled to find meaningful work (or any work) after getting out of school. He graduated in 2008 - during the worst economy in 80 years - and spent months spamming his resume to hundreds of companies he didn't want to work for... and never heard back from them.

When he changed his strategy, he landed several dream jobs, and got to work with amazing people like Tim Ferriss and Ramit Sethi. Charlie went from being broke in his parents' basement, to getting paid to work on projects that made him come alive. It was a far cry from the days of begging for soul-crushing work.
