Nothing in this book that you can't find online,

This review is from: Live & Work in Britain: The Most Accurate, Practical and Comprehensive Guide to Living and Working In Britain (Paperback)
Do NOT waste your money. This book offers NOTHING that you will not easily find online yourself. I was really hoping that this book would offer some deeper insight about finding a job in the UK. Instead of listing employment agencies in England it just simply states, "employment agencies in the UK are a good place to start. Look them up online." Really? That is NOT helpful. Or it states, "The address of your local jobcenter is in the local phone book" & "job vacancies are advertised in local and national newspapers." Ummm..hello? If I'm reading this book I'm clearly NOT local!!!!
Overall this book was just extremely UNhelpful and didn't offer anything you wouldn't think of yourself if you have one ounce of common sense. Don't buy it!
