Are you a Guerrilla job searcher Last week at ExecuNet, Toronto, myself and 35 other senior executives were fortunate to listen to a dynamic and informative speaker. David Perry, Managing Partner at Perry-Martel, an executive search firm based in Ottawa, spoke on Guerrilla Marketing for Job Searchers. This topic that related directly to his best selling book, Guerrilla Marketing for Job Hunters, he co-authored with Jay Conrad Levinson and was published by John Wiley Sons in 2005. This book is a must read for all job searchers and is available from www.amazon.com. I have listened to many speakers over the years, some good, some mediocre, and some bad. David was dynamic! He had everyone riveted to their chairs, not wanting to miss one iota of his presentation.
