WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK

I’ve worked in marketing and business management forever - for large companies like Johnson & Johnson, Nestle, Frito-Lay, CBS and Mission Foods, and smaller entrepreneurial companies like Skinny Snacks and Biovideo.

I’ve screened thousands of résumés, interviewed hundreds of job candidates, hired scores of employees, and have mentored at least thirty college interns.

I recently started teaching Marketing and Branding at several local universities, and discovered that my bright, talented students didn’t have a clue how to find and land a job after graduation. So I wrote this book to give them – and you - the tools to find the perfect job – fast.

About the Author

Diane Huth loves helping other people succeed, and finds innovative and out-of-the box ways to help them meet their goals.

She is a 30+ year veteran marketing superstar, and has held top-level marketing slots at a wide range of household-name companies including Johnson & Johnson, Frito-Lay, Carnation/Nestlé, CBS Cable, and Mission Foods.

Those corporate roles switched to entrepreneurial positions with start-up companies, where she has helped launch and run small firms struggling to make payroll while launching innovative products and services.

During this time, she has interviewed hundreds of job candidates, hired dozens more, and mentored more than 30 student interns.

In her "day job" she is the Chief Marketing Officer of Biovideo, a young company which is pioneering maternity videography. For the past 10 years, she has been a Senior Ideation Consultant for Prodigy Works, a leading innovation consulting firm which provides breakthrough new concepts for Fortune 500 companies.

And her "night job" is teaching Marketing and Branding at Texas A&M University and at University of the Incarnate Word, both in San Antonio Texas.

She hold both an MA in Spanish from Middlebury College, and an MBA from the Thunderbird Graduate School of Global Management in Glendale AZ.

When she started teaching, Diane was stunned to learn how unprepared college students were for their upcoming job search. These students had just spent 4 years of their young lives, and often $100,000 or more on college tuition, and they had no idea how to find a job when they graduated.

So based on her own vast experience, she wrote BRAND YOU! To Land Your Dream Job to teach her students - and you - how to use brand-building tools and tactics to find and land your dream job.

In the rest of her spare time, she lives in San Antonio Texas, but with an eye on "retiring" to a white sandy beach in Mexico soon so she can write while listening to the waves lapping on the beach. She plans frequent trips to Vancouver, Washington to see her only son Alex who lives there with his wife Rachel and hopefully a bunch of redheaded grandchildren in a few years.
