Tom and Ellen Jackson, two of the most experienced and effective career counselors working in America today, have brought what has always been the best of all the resume books to a new level of excellence. The advice, the exercises, the forms, and the more than 100 sample resumes make this the one resume book to have in your library and to use as the foundation of a really powerful job search or career development process. There's nothing out there that comes close! I can only applaud the continuing and outstanding contribution to the field that has always been the hallmark of the work of the Jacksons.

Organized, powerful and easy to use

This book is a great tool kit for writing your own resume. Checklists and sample paragraphs for many industries help you identify your strengths, weaknesses and capabilities. The authors strike a good balance between sharing their advice and delivering lots of information and samples.

This is an excellent book. The author has done a great job in pulling together the elements which spell success in the quest for employment. I recommend it.

I read the first edition many years ago.

If you want to spend time reading how to "focus" "reimage" and fantasize upward and downward about your innermost self, this is the book for you. If you're seriously interested in finding a job which suits you, take a Myers-Briggs personality test and sit down with a career consultant. Something that these authors are NOT.
