5.0 out of 5 stars A few words from one of the contributors to this book, March 1, 2002
By 
Karen Baird-Eaton, CPRW (San Francisco Bay Area) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 101 Best .Com Resumes & Cover Letters (Paperback)
Because of the long lead times in book publishing, by the time this book went to press, the dot-com bust was happening, however much of the information in this book is still very relevant and applicable.

When I was asked to contribute, I was already predicting that there would be sweeping changes within the high-tech industry and choose my contributions accordingly, focusing on ERP, cross-platform databases and Internet security samples as areas that would continue to be relevant beyond the dot-com boom.

The advice given by Jay and Michael as well as all of my colleagues' samples in this book are highly polished and continue to be relevant models for any individual pursuing a career in high-tech, in my opinion.
