> Seven Ways Not To Get Hired
Those
looking for their first jobs out of college also must look out for potential
career pitfalls. According to Max Messmer, chairman
of Accountemps and author of Job Hunting For
Dummies®, 2nd Edition (John Wiley & Sons, Inc.),
competition for jobs has intensified, making it even more important for
entry-level professionals to put their best foot forward.

> When
Job-Hunting: Dress for Success
It's probably one of the most overused phrases in job-hunting,
but also one of the most underutilized by job-seekers: dress for success. In
job-hunting, first impressions are critical.
