This book is a valuable must-read for anyone needing to write or tweak their resume. The updated information on what needs to be included in a resume along with formatting is a very valuable resource. In addition, the list of questions asked to memory-jog for identifying relevant job accomplishments for the professional experience is very beneficial to making sure all key accomplishments are included.
The book also includes information to help those that are looking for a career change and how to go about beginning this process.
Practical tips are also included on how to have a resume navigate an Applicant Tracking System.
