This book is from 2002...might as well be from another galaxy with the changes in the IT field since then.

Many of the companies mentioned in this book are out of business or severely shrunk. Look at Interwoven (NASDAQ: IWOV), for example: book talks about people getting BMWs. Well, maybe when their stock was at nearly 200...not so much at 12.

Amazon really shouldn't even list this book, it's so obsolete.

As soon as I received this book, friends and acquaintances borrowed my copy to help them in their job search. They all say that this book is the most concise reference that they have found to begin an initial job search and is very helpful in targeting their search to those companies looking for their skills. They also report this reference is the only reference they found that is able to identify relevant companies near their home.
