Customer Reviews

Timely

This is a great book for these times we are currently experiencing. This book is full of practical, doable ways to deal with unemployment. The authors give simple suggestions and tools to cope with this growing struggle in our current economic climate. I highly recommend it to anyone who needs a little encouragement in dealing with unemployment.

Very resourceful

I found this book to be an excellent resource for anyone who is unemployed or about to be unemployed. The book takes you through the "basics" that you need to deal with, not only regarding your budget, but with the emotional issues for you and your family as well. It also contains very helpful website addresses for additional information. I also like the sample worksheets and assessments to help me to analyze my personal situation from topics like "my habits" to "being addicted to the Internet". It is also a quick read, which is a definite bonus. I definitely recommend this book.

Very Helpful, Uplifting and Practical

This book is extremely well-written and practical for the individual between jobs. This book gives great examples on how to deal with every situation you may be faced with in regards to being unemployed. Most of us will be unemployed at one time and this book works to address the mental aspects in being unemployed and helping the unemployed maintain a positive outlook as they search for their next job. I work in the employment industry and recommend this book to anyone who may be recently unemployed!!
