I've been asked to help a few family members update their resumes. I decided I needed more help than my own experiences so looked on LinkedIn for a good resource. This book popped up and it has proven to be an invaluable resource. I am only sorry I didn't look for it sooner. But now I am working on another resume and I am so much the wiser after reading this book. It was an easy read, very concise and excellent tips and pointers. I am retired so I have the time to do the extra research - and I have already helped get their LinkedIn profile updated.

As a professional resume writer, I give this book five stars for it's candid, comprehensive approach to the dos and don'ts of resume writing. I appreciate the author's ability to keep things simple for the reader as well as his insights based on his personal experience reviewing thousands of resumes.
