 Rating:  - Great, quick, clean....This book is awesome... I have to put it down every few pages because I like to put thought and intention into the exercises.... it is hopeful, knowledgeable and encouraging... Rating:  - ALOT of meandering...I think I have an idea of what the writer is trying to accomplish but his book could have been simpler and more concise.

You may agree or disagree with the author's religious views, but regardless I do not think that belongs in a job-hunting book. As a disillusioned corporate worker trying to change careers, I really needed practical, real-world advice. The book seems to written ... Read More
