Customer Review: This book is lousy for non-entree level job-seekers. It talks about attire, outlook etc. that one usually knows if he/she has worked before. It gives no solid avenues for locating jobs. If you ask me, don't get this book...it is not worth your money.
Customer Review: I tried using Yate's approach in the mid '90s. It nearly prevented me from getting a good job, so unnatural and glib were my interview responses. Based on the negative comments here, reactions are still the same.
Customer Review: I used this along with "Cover Letter Magic" and "The Very Quick Job Search," and I prefer those over this one.

There's also not as much... more info

Customer Review: I read the Q&A section of this book, and the very next day I was hired for the highest paying position I ever had! It doesn't give you answers, but instead it shows you what employers are looking for
