David Giffin is a retired international senior human resources/operations executive and consultant with experience in a broad range of businesses. During his career, he lost his job twice. The first time, he lost his position as vice president of human resources in 1991 and experienced the typical emotions associated with the loss of a job: grief, anger, worry, fear, impatience, loneliness. Reflecting later, he believes those emotions revealed the shallowness of his relationship with God, driving him to grow his faith significantly in the coming years.

Ten years later in 2001, he lost his job a second time. This time, however, he didn't try to go through the search process alone; he did it with God. The contrast was dramatic, and as a result, he felt called by God to share the sense of peace he experienced the second time around by ministering to others who have lost their jobs. Spiritual Keys to Unlocking Your Job Search Success is a result of that calling.

The book contrasts two job loss journeys experienced by the author. The first search was difficult. But the second search, with God, was rewarding and peaceful. The book, utilizing scripture of God's promise to walk alongside the job seeker, describes a journey with God dealing with emotions of a job loss, how to implement a Two-Pronged Job Search Strategy, and Faith Strategy to guide the listener through their journey.
