In August of 1984, Paul Rega was called into his boss’s office at The Fisher Scientific Company and abruptly informed that due to an economic cutback, he would be losing his job! Later that day, still in shock over what had just occurred, Paul sat on a cold metal folding chair patiently waiting his turn amongst dozens of other seemingly distant minded souls. The thought that he had just lost his first job out of college was tough enough, but he owned a small house he had somehow managed to buy and wondered how he would be able to continue to pay the mortgage. His head glanced sharply upward as his name was finally called for an interview. He vividly recalls his encounter with an older gentleman, a career counselor at his local unemployment office. After enduring a battery of questions, the old man said, “Son, push on no matter how disgusting!” Paul would never forget those simple, but sage words and knew that the older man understood what his feelings were at this difficult time in his life and probably had been there himself at some point in his career.

Today, Paul Rega is a veteran recruiter with over twenty-six years of recruiting and career counseling experience. His newly released book is titled, How To Find A Job: When There Are No Jobs. Paul shares his unique perspective on how to successfully manage the job search process as it relates to a precipitous decline of the current US job market. He engages his audience with a personal account of his own career struggles coupled with hundreds of proven and effective job search techniques and strategies designed to work in a tight labor market, including how to effectively market your background, interviewing skills, network building strategies and much more.

Faced with the unimaginable loss of his 16-year-old daughter who was tragically killed in an automobile accident in 1998, Paul takes his readers on a journey through the mind of an executive recruiter as he struggles to keep his business and career afloat during this difficult time in his life.

Paul’s message to his readers, many who are now the victims of the country’s worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, “As life changes, so often does your career, and to be successful and prosper in today’s hyper competitive job market, you must be armed with the proper job search knowledge and skills.”
