The good people from Wiley (the publisher) have been generous enough to give away free copies of their recently released book, “Get the Job You Want, Even When No One’s Hiring” by Ford R. Meyers, to 10 lucky FreelanceStudents members.

We came across “Get the Job You Want…” when one of our readers mentioned that our recent article – How to Cope with Job Rejection – reminded them of the book. So, naturally, we had to see who was cribbing our work (ok, so the book was clearly out before our article!).

On reading the first few pages, we were slightly dumbfounded by the comparison, as the book seemed to be too… American. However, we pressed on, and gradually we began to understand. This book is awash with heart-warming and motivating advice for those struggling to find work during these economic times, and if you are able to overlook the American undertones then this book could just help you find the job you want!

Competition Details

The competition is open to students only. In order to be in with a chance of winning a copy, all you have to do is register as a member of FreelanceStudents between the 8th September and 2nd October of this year. Easy, huh?

Now, there’s one unfortunate caveat. The competition is only open to UK residents, due to shipping costs for international rates.
