5.0 out of 5 stars
It's a damn good book, indeed!,
By Joanne Wambeke (Denver, CO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Resume Catalog: 200 Damn Good Examples (Paperback)
As a career counselor who has helped hundreds of students and career transitioners market themselves through their resumes, I constantly refer to this book for layout and content ideas. The resume is often the first impression a potential employer has of a candidate and it can be the difference between getting an interview or not. This book has great examples of how to showcase one's skills & experience in an easy-to-read, attractive manner. It's the most used book on my book shelf!

Highly Recommended! The best book on resume I know.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Resume Catalog: 200 Damn Good Examples (Paperback)
I teach a seminar to clients of the Texas Workforce Commission. Yana's books are the best on resumes I have seen, and I review a lot of resume books. She is direct, inspiring and right on target. I know from experience that what she suggests works because I have seen so many people be successful after they understand the concept of targeted, relevant resumes. Do yourself a favor. Buy the book.

Excellent Resource for Resume Guidance,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Resume Catalog: 200 Damn Good Examples (Paperback)
I found this book helpful in getting three job offers in my recent job search. One caution: Employers seem to prefer chronological over functional resumes, but that might be just be my industry (management information systems).
