About the Author
Take a Bite Out of Job Hunting is the upbeat, real-life story of a Spanish major from Indiana who struggles to apply his education and keep from starving. In the beginning, the closest he came to being a corporate monster was at Halloween. Spanning some thirty-three different jobs from his graduation in 1982 from Ball State University, John Kingman's careers have ranged from living like a dog in a tent in East L.A. while unloading semi-trucks for $4.00 per hour to walking the dog--in a Fortune 500 company for more than $100,000 per year. His first-hand experiences teach college graduates and job seekers what to expect, from the minute they leave college or their current career to the minute they land their first or next job(s). Don't expect Kingman to reveal every underhanded, low-life maneuver to stalking the decision makers and looking like the Master of the Universe during the interview process. You could be competing against him on your next interview!

Reading Take a Bite Out of Job Hunting will give any graduate a leg up on the competition. Read this book and be amused. The text is irreverent and hilarious.

Take a Bite Out of Job Hunting provides practical advice to the job seeker. It is entertaining, witty and outright hysterical to read about how this nomad attacks the job market from one end of the country to another.
--Joseph B. Cremer

I used the advice in Take a Bite Out of Job Hunting and got the job of my dreams. This book really relates to people my age.
--Joy Cochran, Age 22
1994 graduate of Indiana University
Kingman triumphs! His witty, provocative message is perfectly timed. To a generation convinced the Doors of Opportunity are closed, Kingman offers a guerrilla mentorship. He shows how those doors can be opened, unlocked, jimmied, slid under or kicked in, by using determination, strength of character and unconventional methods.
--Daniel C. Free
President and CEO of Insurance Audit and Inspection
If you and/or your parents are pouring very large amounts of hard-earned money into education, especially if you are borrowing to do it, you can hardly afford to goof around like Kingman did. His experience and insight provides realistic benchmarks of what to expect from the unexpected, life after college. Take a Bite Out of Job Hunting can even help you get a summer job. I suggest you read it as early in your college career as possible. Don't end uP as road kill on the information super highway!
--Brian K. Ashba

Compelling reading. He did it the hard way, but it worked...
