Recommended reading,
By Brian Bigelow "Brian Bigelow" (Colorado Springs, CO USA) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Resume Power: Selling Yourself on Paper in the New Millennium (Paperback)
For anyone hunting for a job I highly recommend this book, it's a must read. It has helped me write my resume many times over the last few years. Better yet, it's helped me to get a number of jobs, including the one I'm at now that I started working at in December when the job market really fell apart.Come to think of it that is the real test of a resume book, can it help you get a job when the job market is really bad? Take your time and read it carefully and thoughtfully, Tom really knows what he is talking about.
