4.0 out of 5 stars Finally, A Job Book to Really Count On!, June 18, 2000
This review is from: How to Get a Job in New York City and the Metropolitan Area (Paperback)
If you are looking for a basic book on the job process, such as interviewing, writing resumes, networking,and self- exploration, then this is the book for you!

Although I have experience in writing resumes and interviewing, this book gives the readers detailed instructions on finding the right job for them. I truly enjoyed the small section on self- exploration and networking. I never knew the process and protocol of networking. The authors' advocate stringently on this needed part of the job hunting process. After reading that chapter, I was impressed, eager, and informed.

Sanborn and Lederman gives the readers tools, such as trade organization addresses, directories, web sites, and a step by step process to finding and getting the right job. The authors specialize in the New York area, thus they provide updated and specified information that only true New Yorkers would have. They share with the reader testimonial-like experiences. They help you throw away job hunting myths.

Overall, they provide the neccessary links,and inside information to motivate the job seeker to have success in the hectic and chaotic atmosphere of New York city.
