No substitute for hard work

If you're casual about your career and personal fulfillment, this book is probably too much work for you. But when you are truly ready, this book is the most practical and thought-provoking exercise I've seen. Whether it be a promotion or a complete career change, this book takes nothing for granted. After the exercises which help you understand your own professional desires, it provides you the steps and resources to conduct an effective search. It teaches you how to organize a resume, get interviews, how to prepare for them, maximize them, get offers, negotiate them....and I'm brushing over details such as lessons on researching companies, using a job search library, networking.

It may double your salary as it helped me do.

I got a job for $24,000. Then I read the book. I quit the job and re-applied for it the correct way, as directed by this book. I got $32,000 from the very same company. Now, six months later I earn $38,000 with a written promise of $46,000 for this year. If this doesn't show that this book is good, then I don't know what will.

Excellent, no nonsense book

I found the book by Kate Wendleton of the "5 O'Clock Club" to have excellent recommendations for exploring my own interests, abilities, and talents and matching those with needs in the market place. A very down to earth, no nonsense book. Best $ I ever spent.
