After years of working in HR, Mann began to share her behind-the-scenes insight into the world of hiring, creating viral career tip videos and posts online—and soon amassing nearly 1 million followers across YouTube, LinkedIn, and TikTok. In Reverse the Search, Mann distills her juiciest advice into a concise guide on how to turn the job search around, going from job seeking to job shopping—from desperately sending out applications to having your pick of jobs. Beginning with determining your ideal career path, Mann guides readers through the networking and job interview phases, all the way to negotiating the final offer. By following the simple but proven steps that have landed hundreds of Mann’s career coaching clients positions at dream companies, you will transform into a lifelong Job Shopper, getting recruited and attracting opportunities at every stage. Because Job Shoppers know they deserve to land more than any old job. They deserve a career that brings meaningful work, happiness, flexibility, and financial stability. And with Reverse the Search’s help, you’ll get noticed and approached, even when you’re not actively looking for a job. You will have the leverage, and you will never have to perform a soul-sucking job search again.
