This review is from: The New Job Search [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I loved this video. Watched it over and over again. For one, it's beautiful. Lots of eye appeal. Well-paced, too -- the time flew by but I didn't feel rushed. Tons of information that went beyond the typical job search stuff you hear. The Call Me Criteria opened my eyes about how to write a great resume. Good info on cover letters, how to work a job fair, something called a two-minute drill and finding job openings when you've already checked out your newspaper and websites (The video listed some of the top job search websites, too). I also find myself humming to the great music. Not your typical,nondescript video background music stuff. Like I said -- loved it!
