Most residents start their job searches by asking friends or mentors for direction, though such a course may not produce the best results. This compendium focuses on 12 basic steps that include starting the job search, defining needs, completing the interview process, understanding contracts and negotiating fair compensation. Preparing a curriculum vitae, for the interview, choosing potential job locations are all discussed. I would recommend this inexpensive and highly valuable paperback to all graduating residents. The lists of Web sites alone are worth the price of the book. —Elizabeth A.M. Frost, MD, clinical professor of anesthesia at Mount Sinai Medical |
