Review # 1 was written on 2008-09-21 00:00:00 Richard Hartnett This was the singlemost useful book I consulted on my "carpet bomb" search for gainful permanent employment in a field I adore. Obviously, there are newer editions--and I'd recommend going with the most recent. The advice covers everything from preparation and research before the interview, to how to deal with the range of competent and hideously incompetent interviewers out there (sadly, they *dont'* know who they are), to practical advice for meals (with the possible exception of the directive to cut your entire salad into bite-sized pieces!), the importance of handwritten thank you notes, and other follow-up advice (e.g., how to solicit feedback on unsuccessful interviews). This is an amazing resource, and would make a great textbook in any university capstone course where you're getting your folks ready to head out into the real world.

Review # 2 was written on 2011-07-19 00:00:00 Steve Velner THIS IS THE BOOK THAT GOT ME MY JOB, AND ESSETIALLY CHANGED MY LIFE. I recommned it to any and everyone looking to start a new job search endeavour. Read it, let it resonate, follow it, conquer! I read the book, followed the tips, the following week I had 12 interviews and mulitple offers. The book breaks down any industry into the simplest terms as to how you fit in. You're golden if you follow it....
