*Announcing the upcoming revised edition of
Really Useful Job Search Tactics
and

the PRE-RESUME™ concept!

Look to the bottom of this page!


Rick Gillis, founder of The Really Useful Job Company, is involved in many "things" employment. Rick regularly speaks to job seeking/networking/outsourcing groups presenting his concept of the Pre-Resume, a new and powerful tool in getting noticed when applying for a position online as well as technology and email etiquette protocols that everyone in the job search should be aware of.


Speaking from his book, REALLY Useful Job Search Tactics, Rick speaks to virtually all aspects of today's contemporary job search. Fact is, if you haven't been in the job hunt in the past 3-5 years--you probably don't know how to do it!

********************************


After nearly 10 years in commercial real estate in El Paso, Texas, Rick relocated to Houston seeking a change of career. In a very short time, he became employee number one of a brand new internet start-up called HoustonEmployment.com, the first Houston-based local employment site. As a direct result of Rick’s sales efforts, HE.com quickly became the go-to site for a host of the most recognized corporations located in Houston  such as Compaq Computer (now HP), Continental Airlines, The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Treatment Center, Shell Oil Company, Rice University and even major league baseball’s Houston Astros.

In early 1998, Rick was asked to speak to a job seeker’s networking group on how to use the internet in the job search. During that first presentation, Rick began studying job seeking. Watching, listening and learning from job seekers as well as the human resource and staffing company professionals he was meeting on a daily basis, Rick developed the original version of what soon became known as “Guerilla Job Search Tactics” - a presentation on the fundamentals of the contemporary job search. Guerilla Job Search Tactics soon became the book: REALLY Useful Job Search Tactics.

The central theme of Rick's compelling message? “Show me, as an employer, how you are going to make me money or save me money™ - and I will assure you of finding the job you want.”

This basic premise applies to all aspects of the job search from the preparation of your Pre- Resume™ and “30-second elevator pitch” to all the interviews that result. Even more importantly, it has been proven to apply to all levels of job seeking - from entry level to the boardroom. It is this simple statement, coupled with his energetic and entertaining style, that has launched Rick’s professional speaking career and led to his radio show “Employment Radio with Rick Gillis”--a business talk-show with an employment focus.


Announcing the PRE-RESUME

Rick is pleased to announce the 1st revision of Really Useful Job Search Tactics is completed and a new publishing deal is in the works.

The most significant change readers will find in the new book is the all-encompassing concept of Rick’s creation: the PRE-RESUME! Rick will present to the reader the exceptionally powerful concept of a one-page, all inclusive resume regardless of the amount of life-experience you bring to the job search.
The Pre-Resume works for entry-level job seekers as well as highly experienced mature job seekers. Recruiters and hiring managers alike love this "compact" resume concept!

The Pre-Resume™ concept is what will set this new version of Rick’s book apart from all other job search books and, most importantly, get you the results you need!

Other changes include the expansion of the Accomplishments Worksheet.

Watch this site for more information on the release of the new book!
