Kurt Kirton, a successful veteran job hunter, provides actionable advice and a proven system for people seeking their next job in his new book, Here Today, Hired Tomorrow. No theoretical fluff here, just a comprehensive action plan and a step-by step guide that anyone can use, written in a conversational style.

In Here Today, Hired Tomorrow, Kirton draws upon his years of recruiting for Brantley Services, his marketing consulting experience, personal job searches, and invaluable advice from career professionals. Over the course of six layoffs, he experienced firsthand that a system is necessary to stay on track, keep important details from being forgotten and break through to key contacts at prospective employers. And as a result of his diligent job searches, he developed a systematic approach to getting hired that works.
