A rare and wonderful resource

Newlen's book is the kind of discovery that will make a job-seeker shout "Eureka!" It was written a few years ago but remains relevant today. I can't begin to describe how eye-opening it was for me. Ever wondered what others write on their resumes, what employers and interviewers are looking for? Newlen features this in the book, with actual examples of resumes that stand out and succeed. You begin to see the process from the standpoint of the employers and understand what they have in mind when selecting among a pool of candidates, the kind of thing that will give you that much of an edge. Newlen also dives into the details of good writing, noting the basic qualities of composition that not only conform to standards but register with a reader at a psychological level, helping her or him to remember it better. There's information on how best to leverage your training and work experience to date, specialties, formatting-- it's all in here. This would be useful to someone even outside of the librarian field! You'll find this very helpful.

An amazing business-resume book for everyone

Essential hints with added bonuses of computer usage, cover letters and an extensive appendix of action verbs, makes this book a much needed business tool for everyone looking to have a resume worth sharing in today's marketplace
