Before I read this book, I was completely lost. While I knew I wanted to get into entertainment, I had no idea where to start. I would spend days scouring the internet, buying books on how to get "the job of one's dreams" -- not learning a single tip in the process. I was incredibly frustrated.
When I came upon Wendy Straker's job guide, I was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. Wendy has done it! She has created an insightful, intelligent, humorous guide into getting my dream job. Her tips are extraordinary and I finally got that job that I had always wanted. Thank you Wendy! Your book is the best!!!!

I know I want to get into the media or entertainment industries,but I had no idea how to figure out a career path. "Sexy Jobs in the City" gave me unbeleivable insight into how the various jobs actually function as well as which positions best match my personality. The way the author parallels the rules of dating while seaching for your dream guy to the search for your dream job is awesome - they are so similiar!

I've already got an interview for an entry-level postion with a magazine out in L.A....

I thought this was a cute little book. I'm probably not the target, but I think this would be a great gift for a girl going off to college. I think it MAY have helped me. Still, it gave me some good advice and a starting point to do A LOT of additional research. I must admit, I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up!

With a few dozen informational interviews jammed into one cute package, this book will undoubtedly save its readers a whole bunch of time and frustration. All the questions one would be inclined to ask about the glamour jobs of the world are answered by the people who do them best. It's detailed, it's concise and it's eminently readable. I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with the advice given by Straker and her impressive panel of experts.

What a book and an easy read. Her guide to getting a job using the rules of dating was great. The illustrations were amazing too.

THIS IS A MUST BUY !!!!

Any young woman in college or graduating soon should have this book. A fun read and full of useful information.

I hope Wendy Straker comes out with a book on dating too.

This book is awsome, there are alot of fun jobs in media, definetely a must read.!! for anyone interested in a media related job!

A very entertaining and enlightening book with hands-on advice for getting a job in media/film/advertising. Well worth the read!
