5.0 out of 5 stars Great Resume Book, October 6, 2005

I had been searching for a new job and wanting to move out to California to be closer to my family but I wasnt getting any sort of responses from the resumes I sent out, not even rejection letters. I got this book and read through it, followed the advice on the resumes and the cover letters, and had someone I know that has a business look over my resume and tell me what he thought. He told it me it was an outstanding resume and that he had a position opening at his company in March 2006 but he was almost 100% with a resume like that I would have a job before then. I also posted my resume on an online job finder. I applied for jobs in California even though I am 2,000 miles away and for the first time in almost 3 years I least I got rejection letters and also I got an employer wanting an interview even though I was obviously not in California. This book really works! Get it and at least try it out, what have you got to lose a few bucks. I couldn't believe some of the salaries of jobs I was being considered for.

I love these Gallery books. They are a great student resource for inspiration on content, style, organization of a resume. I actually used a similar book to write my own resume.

This was a terrific seller. I needed this book to replace a library copy gone missing. Since this is the third edition and out of print, securing a new or like-new copy was essential.
The seller sold me a copy in pristine condition which the library accepted as a perfect replacement after they wouldn't take a fourth edition.
