Most would say they are very different from their parents, who appeared to be much older at the same age and saw retirement as the only reward for their years of work. With so many Americans living into their 90s, working past age 60 is increasingly common. Whether working for income or looking for meaningful work post retirement, job seekers face an employment market has changed drastically in recent years.

A job-search manual that gives career seekers a systematic, tech-savvy formula to efficiently and effectively target potential employers and secure the essential first interview. The 2-Hour Job Search shows job-seekers how to work smarter (and faster) to secure first interviews. Through a prescriptive approach, Dalton explains how to wade through the Internet’s sea of information and create a job-search system that relies on mainstream technology such as Excel, Google, LinkedIn, and alumni databases to create a list of target employers, contact them, and then secure an interview—with only two hours of effort. Avoiding vague tips like “leverage your contacts,” Dalton tells job-hunters exactly what to do and how to do it. This empowering book focuses on the critical middle phase of the job search and helps readers bring organization to what is all too often an ineffectual and frustrating process.

From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together

Some Tips to Prevent Employment Discrimination Lawsuits teaches employers a faith-based (Judeo-Christian) strategy to help increase productivity and reduce litigation. Filled with excellent, innovative practical tips, the book teaches employers how to prevent race discrimination, gender discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, disability discrimination, sexual orientation discrimination, genetics discrimination, and sexual harassment in the workplace; how to reduce the number of, and dollar amount of, discrimination lawsuits brought by employees against employers; and how to reduce legal expenses in these lawsuits. In addition to legal tips and practical tips, Robinson includes some biblical passages he thinks can, if employers keep them in mind, help employers achieve these goals. Robinson addresses many difficult questions: Should employers be race-conscious and gender-conscious when hiring and managing employees, or race-blind and gender-blind? Should employers be more lenient with aging and disabled employees than with other employees, or treat everyone the same? Do laws that protect gays from discrimination in the workplace conflict with, or comply with, biblical teachings? And many other important questions on the minds of managers today.
