• Truly Useful
  Although I purchased this book after graduating college (over six years ago, now), I still find it useful on a regular basis. I have been able to use this as a reference book again and again, not only when applying for jobs, but also when reviewing others' resumes for hiring purposes, and when updating my own.

• Direct and Excellent
  I've read through this book and applied the lessons in it to develop various resumes for the jobs I've applied to with good results.

  I use this book when updating my own resume and when revising the resumes of others. I looked through a bunch of similar books and selected this one.

• Great resume basics
  If you don't know where to start with your resume, this book is one of the resources you should consider before putting pen to paper. It covers all the areas of resume writing, with plenty of do's and don'ts. Resumes are important and set the tone of your job search. Robin Ryan shows how to make the most of your efforts. The 53 common mistakes were helpful and amusing. I enjoyed the book.
