The author gives you plenty of words and phrases to update your resume with. I found myself touching up my resume several times after I read the book. Worth reading, if your resume need a remake.
I have read many resume books. This is one of the better ones when it comes to helping you phrase your resume. I am a Career Counselor, so trust me - I've got the experience and have read plenty of these type of books. However, maybe not as helpful for upper level jobs, but then again, by the time you are there I hope you will already have a fantastic resume.
Great book to use to find the up-to-date phrasing for resumes so if you are an older person returning to the workforce you don't sound too outdated.
The copy I got has missing pages, so I have no idea what information I am missing. The seller was easy to work with.
