I can look back and laugh about it now, but the idea for the eBook came from my frustration, stress, wasted time, and failures adapting to the changes in the online hiring process nearly every company uses today. My goal was to find what every was struggling with and provide a tool to help students, career professionals, or job hunters succeed at finding and winning their career job. Personally, I was involved with the "old school" job search and hiring process e.g. looking in the paper ads, hopefully, find an opportunity... then physically apply for the job in person. My entire professional career has evolved as companies made changes to the hiring process. I have cut my teeth navigating the constant changes made to job postings, applications, resume submission, screening, and interviews as the technology became more sophisticated. These changes put many great, qualified, and talented workers at a sever disadvantage. Why? If you haven't learned the skills required to apply for jobs this way, for whatever reason, you would struggle all around. With that, competition for good jobs is directly proportional to the increase a company makes in the jobs-posts marketing on social media. Making it even more challenging to stand out. It is incredibly difficult to learn the latest job-search techniques, build your online professional profile and resume if you don't have tools and guidance helping develop your skills. A lot of time and effort goes into the entire process from start to finish. So, any setbacks are strongly felt the longer it takes to complete.

In an unorthodox approach, Georgetown University professor Cal Newport debunks the long-held belief that "follow your passion" is good advice, and sets out on a quest to discover the reality of how people end up loving their careers. Not only are pre-existing passions rare and have little to do with how most people end up loving their work, but a focus on passion over skill can be dangerous, leading to anxiety and chronic job hopping. Spending time with organic farmers, venture capitalists, screenwriters, freelance computer programmers, and others who admitted to deriving great satisfaction from their work, Newport uncovers the strategies they used and the pitfalls they avoided in developing their compelling careers. Cal reveals that matching your job to a pre-existing passion does not matter. Passion comes after you put in the hard work to become excellent at something valuable, not before. In other words, what you do for a living is much less important than how you do it. With a title taken from the comedian Steve Martin, who once said his advice for aspiring entertainers was to "be so good they can't ignore you," Cal Newport's clearly written manifesto is mandatory reading for anyone fretting about what to do with their life, or frustrated by their current job situation and eager to find a fresh new way to take control of their livelihood. He provides an evidence-based blueprint for creating work you love, and will change the way you think about careers, happiness, and the crafting of a remarkable life.

It’s no secret that college doesn’t prepare students for the real world. Student loan debt recently eclipsed credit card debt for the first time in history and now tops one trillion dollars. And the throngs of unemployed graduates chasing the same jobs makes us wonder whether there’s a better way to “make it” in today’s marketplace. There is—and Dale Stephens is proof of that. In Hacking Your Education, Stephens speaks to a new culture of “hackademics” who think college diplomas are antiquated. Stephens shows how he and dozens of others have hacked their education, and how you can, too. You don’t need to be a genius or especially motivated to succeed outside school. The real requirements are much simpler: curiosity, confidence, and grit. Hacking Your Education offers valuable advice to current students as well as those who decided to skip college. Stephens teaches you to create opportunities for yourself and design your curriculum—inside or outside the classroom. Whether your dream is to travel the world, build a startup, or climb the corporate ladder, Stephens proves you can do it now, rather than waiting for life to start after “graduation” day.
