Insert your preferred reference to Southern hospitality here: Our visit to the Borders on Peachtree Road in Atlanta was a delight, pure and simple. Another SRO audience who arrived early with plenty of great questions, including inquiries about how soon to follow up after an interview, how to switch functions from clerical work to administrative assistant and how to conduct a phone interview. (Rule One: Use a mirror so you can see how you sound!)

Marc and I were blown away by the warmth and encouragement we encountered; it was a blast posing for attendees’ photos with us, and I’m curious to see the results on Facebook! In the meantime, our own Cori Rosoff contributed this suite of photos from a lovely evening in the Peach State.

  “Before you start applying for a job, read ‘You’re Better Than Your Job Search”

  —Guy Kawasaki (via Twitter 8/23/10) Managing Director, Garage Technology Ventures; Columnist, Entrepreneur Magazine

  “This is one of the better all-purpose job search guides that takes you through the entire process in an easy-to-digest fashion, and then continues on with you through the first 90 days on the your new job.”

  —Marvin Walberg Columnist, Scripps Howard News Service

  “The best part of ‘You’re Better Than Your Job Search’ is that it speaks to me as a grown-up. There’s tons of to-do’s and tips for job-searching better, but there’s no finger-wagging attitude. Seems like they know their audience is people are actually pretty good at doing things — hard things. We’re not newbies or lost souls; we’re accomplished business people.”

  —Stephen Howard-Sarin Vice President, Business & Finance Brands at CBS Interactive

  “Marc Cenedella and TheLadders have been pioneering the way in job search and career management for the past few years. It’s nice to see that he’s now sharing what he knows with all of us – his colleagues and job seekers worldwide. Read his book carefully, pay close attention to every single thing, and then launch your own successful search campaign!”

  —Wendy Enelow Author, Trainer and Career Consultant

  “Even if you want to believe that you know it all, read this excellent book first: you may be convinced that you are a ‘highly experienced,’ ‘seasoned,’ ‘world-class,’ superlative executive. That’s not enough: Make sure that others are convinced too after you sell them your story!”

  —Marylene Delbourg-Delphis Author, Serial CEO and Entrepreneur
