The Complete Idiots Guide To The Perfect Resume, 5th Ed I liked this book. This is a no non-sense approach to creating several types of resume's. The instruction is very clear and understandable with many examples of many different career types (engineers, bankers, insurance, teaching, etc.) I used the approaches (which I though were silly at first) and was amazed at the almost immediate response with calls for interviews. (I am also now employed) This book answered the many questions I had concerning what should and should not be included in the resume (kind of like the author has been asked these questions before). I totally recommend this book for. Clarke Waldron said Do it this way or just blend into the crowd.. I have been using this book as a guide for years. The author's approach to this horribly tedious and annoying task actually gives you hope that you will accomplish something useful. The main idea is to not make your resume look like every other resume in the universe. Every other tutorial about writing up your resume recommends the same crappy methods and you end up with a repulsive list of the some old thing that crosses the desk of every hiring authority; and you don't want that.Considering how little this book can cost you, you'll be highly rewarded for giving it a try. Since I found it many . Exceeded my expectations! This is a great book. I found it at the Monster.com website and checked it out from my library. I liked it so much that I decided to buy it. I received the book in less than a week although the scheduled delivery time could have been as late as mid-April. I would definitely buy from this seller again. They are fast and reliable.
