A New Book That Provides Guidance, Spiritual Inspiration and Practical Tips on Employment In an economy where unemployment rates. They are at an all-time high, advice on how to survive in the working world can be extremely valuable. In our new book, Mr. and Mrs. Smith s Employment Survival Guide (published by AuthorHouse), my wife and I offer readers both practical and spiritual insight into how to effectively navigate unemployment and how to better develop an existing career. Mr. and Mrs. Smith s Employment Survival Guide includes a broad spectrum of career-related advice, including tips on leaving your current job if necessary, how to get through unemployment with enriching activities, job-search tips, resume-building advice, unemployment benefits and information, essential skills to build or improve upon and interviewing pointers. Also included in the beginning of every chapter is a Bible verse that relates to the subject matter of that particular section. This spiritual inspiration gives a new perspective on employment advice that is not often highlighted in related pieces of literature. With this book, we impart our knowledge and professional guidance, assisting every reader in positioning themselves toward effective employment. Each chapter displays our experiences in both the employment highs and unemployment lows throughout life.
