Many samples of actual resumes are included. Short tips are highlighted in gray boxed insets. Particularly helpful are the tips on downplaying one's weaknesses, although the author stresses telling the truth. Cartoons at the beginning of each chapter and a slightly humorous tone keep readers' interest. Although designed to be read in its entirety, the logical approach, chapter headings, and numerous subdivisions provide avenues for those wishing to read only portions of the text.

Strictly speaking, this is a workbook, but there are really so very few pages with fill-in-the-blank lines that librarians who discount the book for that reason will miss providing an excellent tool for their patrons.
