About the Book

So you want to move to Hollywood? You've got your suitcase, your resume, a pair of designer sunglasses, and a few friends lined up who can show you around. You're ready to go, right? Wrong! Los Angeles is a machine unlike any other and, before you arrive, you should have an understanding of how it operates. "Hollywood Primer: Everything You Need to Know Before Moving to Los Angeles" is not about moving here, it's about LIVING here. Told with a sense of humor (because you'll need it), you'll learn what life is like on a day-to-day basis. This book is the only one that provides you with the answers no one thought to mention for the questions you didn't know to ask. You'll learn the following: Which neighborhoods match your personality How to use a connection to land a job Phrases that don't mean what you think they mean How to avoid those who prey on newbies When and how to approach celebrities The art of giving constructive criticism to friends How to navigate left-hand turns at intersections Tips for crafting solid cover letters How to dress for success Ways to maintain a proper attitude through rejection Why dating in LA is so difficult How to recognize real interest from the perception of interest The book also explains the "networking handshake", the "restaurant walk", an alternate to the "Barham Shuffle", how to pronounce "Los Feliz" properly, and much, much more. Whether you are coming for the entertainment industry, the sunshine, or just a change of scenery, this handy reference guide is the What to Expect When You're Expecting of relocating to the City of Angels. Keep it close to you as you begin your new adventure and may all your dreams come true!
