Job Reconnaissance

Acknowledgments

This book evolved out of a very long process originating back in 2004, when I pursued my first job found with this process. The journey included finding the job after that and helping several friends find jobs of their own. Along the way, it became two different presentations and one fairly popular blog post. So, first and foremost, this book could not exist without a conversation stretching across almost a decade with a great many people.

In particular, though, I would like to thank Beth Friedman, my copyeditor on this book. Beth drastically improved my language here, so if this book is readable, thank her.

This book involves many issues that could be considered marginally ethical, so I would very much like to thank my beta ...
