2. "Bovée and Thill are the only authors who explain and illustrate
in every chapter how mobile is revolutionizing business
communication.
“Surprisingly, although we’re in the midst of a mobile
revolution, no other business communication authors cover
mobile business communication, which should tell you
everything you need to know about which authors keep their
textbooks current.”

3. A mobile device can be used to check out potential
employers’ sites on the go; most are mobile-optimized,
and some offer everything from background
information on the work environment to application
forms that can be filled out right on a smartphone or
tablet.

4. In addition to researching companies and applying for
openings, integrating a mobile device into a job search
strategy can help with networking.

5. Job applicants can monitor their active job applications,
schedule follow-up calls and emails, and know the
moment an offer has been made.

6. Job applicants can enhance their personal branding and
online portfolio by using social media and blogging apps
on mobile devices.

7. Job seekers can tailor their resumes to new
opportunities with resume-creation apps, keep track of
business cards with scanning apps, and record post-interview
impressions with note-taking apps.

8. Job interviewees can optimize the job interview process
by staying on top of scheduling, using audio and video
recording to practice interviews, and download meeting
system apps (such as Cisco WebEx Meetings) so they’re
available to interview even when they’re away from
their computer.

9. Job applicants may be asked to take a job interview
using Skype and should learn the essentials tips for
preparing for and participating in a mobile online video
interview.
