Customer Reviews:
Must Have for Newer Recruiters.......2007-07-16
If you are a newer recruiter, I would highly reccomend you buy this book. I read it from cover to cover three times, and have modified several of the scripts to my own style and have them pinned up at my desk. They are a great reference for overcoming objections, and I use them daily.
Useless book.......2007-04-04
This is a useless book, dont waste your money on this. This book is for someone who does not know anything about recruitment process. If you are a beginner then there are other choices also....there is nothing special in this book.
Good for any recruiter.......2007-01-10
I bought a copy of this book for each member of my staff. We read a chapter or section each week and discuss at our weekly staff meeting. We have found many good scripts, retorts and strategies that we can use in our business. I will say that some of the scripts were too harsh for our tastes. We are all female and all agreed some of the scripts would make us very uncomfortable to say. Maybe a man would see them differently? Regardless, the overall learning is tremendous. Something to keep on your desk at all times and re-read often.
For Recruiters by a Recruiter.......2007-01-09
Good workbook for going over all your recruiting methods and procedures. A very good help mate.
Important base for recruiters.......2004-07-04
Perfect book for recruiters. Clearly and easily. Best book to systematize your knowledge, skills and get new. I reccomend it.
Book Description
"Few popular writers handle light romantic comedy as deftly as Jennifer Crusie."
--Boston Globe on Bet Me
"A sure bet…Jennifer Crusie's rollicking romance hits the jackpot."
--BookPage on Bet Me
"Wonderful, fresh, funny, tender, outrageous…Crusie is one of a kind."
--Booklist on What the Lady Wants
"Crusie seems incapable of writing a boring page, or one that's not aglow."
--Kirkus Reviews on What the Lady Wants
"A non-traditional couple (he's 30, she's 40) and a dog with a true personality make this one of the funniest, sexiest romances of the year."
--Library Journal on Anyone But You
Customer Reviews:
I know these people :) .......2007-09-08
I love Jennifer Crusie! For all of us women who have insecurities (and who doesn't) Jennifer C. makes you feel right at home. The first book of hers that I read was "Welcome to Temptation' and I have been a diehard fan ever since. I can relate to every single heroine and the relatives that surround them. Its the story of my life .... better than chocolate anyday
Sweet Escape.......2007-05-30
This book is all about trying to find the guy of your dreams; hence the title "Manhunting." The big catch in this book is the the main two characters meet eachother right off the bat but don't realize they are perfect for eachother. After many dates that end very badly, and the guy getting more and more jealous, it becomes a book you can't put down. Check it out yourself.
Vintage early Crusie.......2007-04-17
I'm just discovering Crusie's books from the early '90s and it is easy to see why she became one of the most beloved writers in the romance genre. Manhunting is her first book -- it's not exciting and has no mystery plot like her other books, but somehow is one of the most charming, funny and witty stories I've read! Like our couple Kate and Jake, this book is so relaxed that you, too, feel like you're lazing along a calm, sunny lake. The dialogue is superior and fuels the attraction between the two, a true, lovely romance novel. This book demonstrates why Crusie is head and shoulders above the rest.
Reprint of previous printed book.......2007-03-31
I loved the book, I always enjoy Jennifer Crusie's novels, but had not read the forward that stated it was a reprint, though I know the originals are rare. I might have waited to buy it if I had realized it.
A light read.......2007-03-25
Jennifer Crusie's "Manhunting" centered around Kate, a successful high-powered business consultant who took a vacation at a golf resort in Kentucky with the aim of finding a partner who would be equally successful. What Kate did not expect was to meet Jake, a good-looking but seemingly unsuccessful person working at the resort, whom she had mistaken to be a "handyman." Jake, on the other hand, had left his successful career as a tax attorney to return to Kentucky, wanting to have a relaxing life, and not be in the rat's race. They fell in love of course and the rest of the story was rather predictable.
This was one of Jennifer Crusie's earlier novels which was released again after Crusie gained success in the publishing world. This was a very light and fun read, with very little plot or secondary characters. It was focused quite entirely on both Kate and Jake. Eventhough I can see the same Crusie humor in "Manhunting" I could still recognized that it is a little different from her current books which has better plots. Still, this was a fun read and if you are a Jennifer crusie fan, "Manhunting" is defintiely for you.

Without question it is the only work of its kind.
Book Description
In its roughly 25 years of existence, the trial consulting profession has grown dramatically in membership, recognition, and breadth of practice. What began as a small activist group of social scientists volunteering their expertise to assist in the defense of Vietnam War protestors has evolved into a diverse set of professionals from a range of educational and professional backgrounds. In spite of such enormous growth, the work of trial consultants has gone largely unexamined. Trial Consulting takes an in-depth look at the primary activities of trial consultants, including witness preparation, focus groups and mock trials, jury selection, change of venue surveys, and attorney presentation style. It also examines the profession's struggle to define itself, resisting certification and licensure requirements and settling instead for a set of practice standards. The authors draw upon empirical and other scholarly work in the social sciences, recommended "best practices" from trial lawyers, and the written and spoken recommendations and reflections of the trial consultants themselves. Addressing a broad spectrum of topics ranging from handwriting analysis to medical malpractice cases, they also suggest reforms for improving the profession and the efficacy of the trial consultant in the courtroom. The result is a critical analysis of what trial consulting truly adds to, and detracts from, the administration of justice. This book is an indispensable guide for practicing and aspiring trial consultants as well as the judges, attorneys, and psychologists who work with them. Trial Consulting provides a thought-provoking statement on the state of the profession, and students and professionals alike will benefit from the challenges it offers.

Book Description
Updated Edition of Bestseller!
Build a learning community of teachers and students through mastering the art of effective leadership!
The first edition of this classic text was based on a landmark study in which the authors surveyed over 800 K-12 teachers to find how the best principals encourage teacher growth and professionalism. The answers provided conclusive evidence that the most successful principals act as instructional leaders who advocate teacher development that enhances students’ learning. The updated and expanded second edition presents new research by the
Blases, along with the most recent research and insights to support the text’s groundbreaking theory.
Successful instructional leaders inspire their staff to develop "professional learning communities" dedicated to effective teaching practices. New to the second edition is an in-depth analysis that shows principals how to achieve this goal. Also new are additional figures, models, and reading lists that enrich the text’s original findings.
Time-tested practices of instructional leadership are still central features. Principals can use these keys to success to:
- Build teachers’ trust through continual communication
- Encourage teachers to continue their self-improvement efforts
- Motivate teachers with constructive feedback
- Promote and participate in reflective practices
- Support and encourage teachers’ professional development
Encourage your teachers to be their best through supportive collaboration and communication. Practice real instructional leadership and develop a "professional learning community" in which effective teaching promotes continued learning.
Book Description
This book represents a new - some may say radical - approach to forecasting. The authors explain how:
Forecasting less, not more, can yield higher customer service and lower inventories Teamwork, good communications, and clear accountabilities are more important than complex statistical forecasting models, It's more beneficial to pursue process improvement than to focus narrowly on forecast accuracy.
This is an exciting, new, breakthrough approach to a traditionally difficult and frustrating task.
