WEDDLE’s 2007/8 Guide to Association Web Sites
3rd Edition

Recruiters regularly visit the Web-sites of professional associations because they believe the best candidates are found there. This is the only Guide available anywhere that will help you determine where those recruiters are going online so you can be there to meet them.

Professional associations and societies are increasingly trying to connect their members with recruiters who have openings to fill. It’s no surprise, therefore, that a growing number of these organizations are adding job boards, resume databases and networking resources to their Web-sites.

There are thousands of national, regional and local associations serving people in every profession, craft and trade, in every industry and location, and representing virtually every affinity and affiliation. The challenge for job seekers, therefore, is to find which associations offer these services and where they are located on the Internet.

Completely updated for this edition, WEDDLE’s Guide to Association Web Sites solves that problem. Compiled in conjunction with the Association for Internet Recruiting, it lists over 1,900 professional, technical and trade associations and indicates what kinds of employment services (i.e., job board, resume database, networking listserv or discussion forum) they provide.

Anyone (and everyone) can find the jobs posted at the largest and best known job boards. This book will ensure that you tap the opportunities that are posted in your particular field or industry. It’s a one-of-a-kind reference for mid-career professionals, managers and executives. Best of all, it’s updated all year long with site information posted at WEDDLEs.com.

'Tis of Thee
A Son’s Search for the Meaning of American Patriotism
  By Peter Weddle

When you sit around the dinner table with your kids, do you ever talk about patriotism? Sure, you know what it feels like, but can you tell them what it means? Do you have the words to describe how patriotism is expressed and why it’s important? If not, T’is of Thee is for you.

On September 11, 2001, the United States of America was attacked by terrorists. For those of us who lived through their horrific acts, the day began bright with hope and possibilities and ended dark with despair and fear.

As with the attack on Pearl Harbor, the day’s events changed the focus of our lives. America was a nation consumed with its Pursuit of Happiness on the morning of September 11th; by the evening of that day, it was united in its determination to protect and preserve Life and Liberty for ourselves and our families, for our present and our future.

This book is about American patriotism. It is an intensely personal book—not unlike Tuesdays With Morrie—written largely in the two years prior to the terrorist assault on this country. It was finished in the week immediately following the attack.

The book recounts the year-long “conversation” between a son and his father, between a living American and one resting in Arlington National Cemetery. Their topics range from the Vietnam War to the American Dream, but always, their conclusion is the same: America is as good, as vibrant, as hopeful as the patriotism of we, its people.
