The 22 books for job-searching in the high-tech, social media world cover things like:
the new ways to present yourself as with linkedin
exactly where to find jobs
the job you want is probably local, find the places in your field as easily as your local phonebook then target them
how to stay grounded in reality where nothing changes much in the hiring process because the boss wants to see you face-to-face to get a feel for who you are so you need a certain sociable, positive exterior to get any job anywhere.
Bosses want people who show up. You have to give off that kind of serious, I-want-a- job vibe, not a casual, I’m-looking-for-fun vibe.

Before you decide to get into any trade or profession, my advice is to do at least the most basic employment projection research for that field simply because you don't know all the variables that affect the future viability of a profession.
Nobody knew that computer technology cuts out the need for accountants and architects in half. How about lawyers? Nowadays we have do-it-yourself forms and paralegals doing the job for most basic law issues at less than half the cost of a lawyer not to mention there is a glut of lawyers on the market.
How about real estate agents? Are they scrambling because people are selling their own houses because of the internet?
When are people gonna get tired of psychobabble and stop getting psychotherapy because they know it's doo-doo although I doubt this will happen because medical insurance now covers mental health even though a lot of people are starting to see it's a big fake industry?
Technology will almost eliminate some professions. Some things are now outsourced to other countries so much that you can't find a job in those fields. A lot of software and video games are made in India and Eastern Europe on contract for American companies. Even though a piece of software is supposedly created by an American company, it was really made in Hungary.
Why should they pay you $25 an hour when they can pay a Hungarian guy $5 an hour.
Several government agencies compile statistics then analyze them to help them make educated guesses about which occupations will be hot in the future and which will fade away or die out.
You can use knowledge to help you pick a career that has a good chance of being around for awhile.
