The authors explain in clear and non-techno babble prose, the steps and concepts behind making use of the Internet for conducting a career search and sending out your resume.

I especially appreciated their listing of some of the better and most worthwhile resume database sites to submit resumes to and look for job postings on.

Essential driving guidance to have in this "information superhighway" age!

If you're looking for a good book on how to write a compelling resume and prepare it for online use, I recommend you look elsewhere. While this book covers resume creation, as well as online format information, these sections are too slight to really help you write an effective resume, cyber-focused or not. The authors seem more interested in technology (OCR, resume software) and offbeat career search areas (government retirees, for example) than resume content.

While the more recent edition of this book may have more up-to-date job site listings (and the rating system is good), the listings in this edition are already out-of-date.

For a better book on resume writing that also covers much of the cyber territory, try Resumes for Dummies.

Alot of good info I havn't seen before
