ryan: The 2HJS is the perfect book for navigating the job search in the social media age! As someone who would rarely get interviews in the past, this book teaches you how to use technology and networking to get the attention of potential employers and land the first interview. With thousands of people applying for the same jobs, you need to stand out and put a name and possibly a face to your resume. The 2HJS shows you how to do that in three simple steps: create a list of target companies, prioritize them based on your fit and interest, and contact the right people at those companies using a personalized email template. The book also provides helpful tips and tools for managing your job search, such as the LAMP list and the Six-Point Email. The book is full of practical examples and success stories from real job seekers who used the 2HJS method to get their dream jobs. Whether you are a recent graduate, a career changer, or a seasoned professional, the 2HJS will help you find the right job faster and easier.

Easiest Columbus OH overnight delivery… for a great product with the cheapest price out there!: Simplistic language and dialect are easy to follow, yet largely missed by the arguments of academics in this respect.

Vidal: As a seasoned veteran when it comes to books on job searching - having read tons and even written several myself - I can confidently say that The 2-Hour Job Search stands out as one of the absolute best I've encountered.

Steve Dalton's approach is incredibly actionable and practical, providing step-by-step strategies to find jobs faster and more efficiently. I especially appreciate how he incorporates psychological principles into his advice - the mindset shifts and emotional intelligence he recommends are useful well beyond just job searching.

GeepersKid: As a career coach for STEM professionals, I notice that many of my clients are pretty process-centric. They like to follow instructions and check boxes. So to them, getting vague advice like "you need to network more" or "reach out to people on LinkedIn for informational interviews" can be panic-inducing.

Enter: Steve Dalton's 2-Hour Job Search.

Steve lays out, in incredible detail, how to evaluate your needs and then start a structured approach to networking through Informational Meetings - from finding the companies, to finding contacts, to reaching out to these contacts, to researching for the Informational Meeting, to the meeting itself and the FollowUp. And, you'll never be sitting around agonizing about when to send a follow-up email to a potential contact because, yep, Steve has a method for that as well!

It is obvious that he has taught this method many times at the university level, because his instructions are clear and his explanations are relevant. He knows every place were people might want to short-cut his program steps, and he has examples of what happens when they do.

I use this program to coach my clients who get overwhelmed easily...

Sherzad Nawroze: A refreshing and systematic process to navigate the complex job search market. I would highly recommend reading !

Roberto: Its a simple read, and goes step by step to job search without much stress and infinite job post scrolling.
Helps a lot to get an organized search that does make progress.

Lauren: If I could sum up two things that the 2HJS offers it would be:

1.) A psychological and research/evidence-based approach to networking and acquiring meaningful knowledge to assist in the job search. The knowledge and background that Dalton lays out for you gives you confidence and an understanding that his recommended approaches are not subjective but rather based in meaningful understanding of how people interact and provide support.

2.) A focused and straightforward guide to job searching - For someone who read ALL the blogs about job-searching and networking, the 2HJS is a breath of fresh air. Instead of giving broad advice, Dalton lays out clear methods of attaining a job at one of your top companies.

For example, Dalton encourages you throughout the job search process to understand the cost/reward benefit of each action you take. He uses feedback from his own experience (guiding countless students through the job search process) and scientific-based evidence to recommend practices, which reap the most rewards for the job seeker.

I am one to get caught up in the steps, slowing myself down. I also tended to think to broadly about ALL the companies I...

Derick: Prior to this book, I applied to jobs like normal people. I probably applied to 50 job applications per week with not much luck. Every 50 applications would probably get me 1 or 2 interviews. This was my comfort zone, it was easy to do and quite fast. After doing this for 9 months, I got discouraged during COVID so I decided to try a new method. The 2-hour job search method. I might have gotten lucky because I found a booster from my very first email and that landed me a job 2 months later. But even if I hadn't secured that job I would have continued using this method. My interview rate was a lot higher at a 20% response rate and the method was even faster. After the initial setup, it takes probably 10 mins of work each day.

I don't usually write reviews but I feel like this book should be shared more. It works and it's efficient. It does involve you getting out of your comfort zone if you aren't used to networking. But once you do one or two interviews it's easy sailings.

I'm actually surprised there are so few reviews for this book.
