"I was ready to abandon my LinkedIn account before I read Jason Alba's concise and remarkably useful guide," says Robert Sutton, Stanford Professor and author of 'The No Asshole Rule.' "Jason writes with remarkable clarity, provides one useful tip after another about how to use it most effectively, and unlike so many user guides that offer breathless and uncritical hype, Jason candidly explains the virtues and drawbacks of Linkedin's features.

About the Author                                                                                                                            
Jason Alba is the job seeker and networking advocate. He got laid off in January 2006, just a few weeks after Christmas. Even though he had great credentials and it was a job-seeker's market, Jason could hardly get a job interview. Finally he decided to step back and figure out the job search process, including trying to understand all of the available resources. Within a few months he had designed a personal job search tool, JibberJobber.com, which helps professionals manage career and job search activities the same way a salesman manages prospects and customer data.
