I read this book after being out of job for a month when my true self was not seeing clearly. This book gave me a roadmap back into financial and mental sanity.
After I got my sanity back, the book helped me obtain the job that I was looking for with a
positive attitude. This book is an easy read.
The suggestions and knowledge gained from reading this book, can be used once on the job again.
This is a timely self-help book for the times, I am now experiencing, in the fast technological transformation in the global employment and hiring practices of companies.
Thanks, Valerie Pederson for writing this book at this time.

Okay info but "Unemployment Boot Camp:Tactics for Surviving and Thriving in the 21st Century," by R.A. Long is better, kitschier book for half the price! Brief and to-the-point, "Unemployment Boot Camp" offers action steps and interactive exercises in a boot camp theme that's geared toward overcoming the often paralyzing emotions that accompany job loss. It was a quick read with clear and doable steps that helped me refocus my energies on feeling good and in control for the first time in a long time since being given the boot from corporate America.
