[Eric Brown · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent book! Randy's years of experience are concisely laid out in a logical and easy to consume manner. For those in HR, there may be nothing new presented. For those in job transition this is a solid plan and strategy forward to 'land' your next job. The chapters on networking are a valuable wake-up call for anyone in the workforce. While landing your next job is certainly about what you can do, it is even more about who you know.
This is a quick read but don't gloss over the exercises. You'll find them well worth your time.
