Little is more feared by the average consumer than becoming unemployed. It reduces ones standard of living and in many people creates a number of debilitating physical, emotional, and behavioral problems. In The First 30 Days after Losing Your Job David Jones draws from his own experience of losing his job, wrestling with the effects it had on both he and his family, how they eventually were able to begin moving forward.

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars REAL LIFE. REAL ADVICE.
It is not every day we can see with such clarity how an individual can navigate the curve balls life can throw you. We can watch his story evolve and walk with the author every step of the way. David Jones has such practical and common sense advice for those who have lost their job. His encouragement gives all of us hope and then a plan to overcome what has happened. I really enjoyed the segment on “how to interview”.

Even if you have not lost a job, this book gives you wonderful insights of how to help those who have.

5 Stars Personal Experience & Practical Advice into Forced Job Transition
Little did David F. Jones realize when he was asked to share his experiences about his recent job transition that Americans would be facing the toughest job market in many decades. In the book Jones shares of being transitioned out of an upper management position; after almost 30 years in the same industry with the same company. Throughout the book we are invited into the personal journey that Jones was forced to take. We get a glimpse of the emotions that filled the days right after receiving the news and the intentional decision to let the `past be the past’ and quickly move on.

There is much more to the book than just a personal story because most of it is filled with practical advice that could help anyone with a job search, whether you are recently unemployed or seeking a job for the first time. Included in this advice is: how to prepare a resume, building a network of business relationships, discovering you passions and purpose, and developing a game plan toward your next position.

Practical suggestions for a positive job future run throughout the pages. One that is not business related but repeated often is the author’s dependence on God. It is very clear in this book that Jones understands and knows he has a personal relationship with God. So here is a business book that gives practical advice, yet doesn’t sell the reader on the fact that it is an all up to `me’ approach; but that there is a higher power we can place our trust.

I highly recommend this book.
