Title: Getting a job: where to start?
Review: Brad Karsh's book is a good place. It's practical, straight-forward - often funny - and it works!As a former recruiting director, Karsh has read 10,000+ resumes and knows the differences between what takes your resume to the next step and what sends it to the blue recycle bin.- Write or re-write your resume so it gets attention? Check.- Ditto your cover letter? Check.- Networking tips? Check.- How to impress at the interview? Oh, yeah.How to recognize the line between persistent follow-up and stalking? Yes, that too (could be pretty important).Plus more, including "before and after" resume examples and sample resumes for specific industries.As someone who used to do hiring and firing (in advertising) I find this book spot on. I use it as the text for my Communication Studies internship class at the University of San Francisco - and suggest to students that this book, if read and taken seriously, can be the fuse that ignites their careers.Nobody's contradicted me yet.GP
