1st book of the series, I believe. Used it a long time and it is a must-have for your job-hunting library.
Great for those in unusual situations or seeking to change careers.
10 Gold Stars!

I have used this book TOO MANY TIMES over the past 10 years! Obviously, I would have preferred not to deal with layoffs and reorgs, but each time I was faced with those situations, the DGRG was there to help. Every time I submitted a resume, I was complemented not only on the content, but also the structure of the resume. I have only Yana Parker to thank for the techniques I learned from her book. Thanks to her and the DGRG, I’m finally have my dream job at Apple Computer, Inc. today…
