Colleagues,
My publisher is giving away electronic copies of my book, Why Good People Can't Get Jobs, which examines
modern hiring practices, including the role of applicant tracking systems, and how they drive complaints about skill shortages.
It really is free, but only for the rest of the week. The link below provides information on downloading.
