How many job hotlines are there in the states that interest you?
That’s easy. Simply multiply the number of pages in the chapter for a state that interests you by 30. That will give you a good estimate. For example, the California chapter runs 37 pages which means there are about 1,100 job hotlines listed for the state. Alabama, with just 4 pages, has about 120 job hotlines listed.

This is the actual Table of Contents for the book,
the National Job Hotline Directory: The Job Finder’s Hot List 1999–2001.

1    Conducting a Savvy, Balanced Job Search    1

Joyce Lain Kennedy writes in her nationally–syndicated column:

“In a rut in the job hunt? Pick up the phone.”

“Call telephone job hotlines, which are especially useful for entry–level, administrative and blue–collar jobs.

“The new National Job Hotline Directory: The Job Finder’s Hot List  says there are 6,500 job hotlines in the country and lists them by state with broad industries such as computers, education, government, financial, hospitality, medical and health care, and retail. …

“And like  newspaper ads, telephone hotlines identify jobs that are open right now. Get the just–published, 376–page National Job Hotline Directory from the publisher, Planning/Communications at 888/366–5200, weekdays, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Central Time.”
