5.0 out of 5 stars Strategic yet practical help for getting that job you want, December 7, 1999

This review is from: Sales & Marketing Resumes for $100,000 Careers (Paperback)

I found the book to be very helpful. It is well organized, concise yet insiteful. Very up-to-date with advice on how to get a job in the internet age. The resumes are very effective and offer good examples to craft your own resume from - much more helpful than other books I've read on the subject - most likely due to its targeted nature - sales and marketing resumes. That way I can look at almost any resume and find it helpful instead of wading thru a bunch of general resumes to find one that is applicable.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for every sales person, February 21, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Sales & Marketing Resumes for $100,000 Careers (Paperback)

This book is an incredible resource to preparing a world-class sales rep resume. I thought I had a pretty good resume until I got this book. I just received two job offers and in both interviews got great feedback on my resume. I got from this book what would have cost me hundreds of dollars in professional resume writer fees. A great investment for your future!
