    Whether the product is valuable or not remains to be seen and I

    Whether the product is valuable or not remains to be seen and I don't know if I'm even going to finish it yet. My e-mail encounter with the author has left a sour taste in my mouth. The man is condescending, unwilling to assist (I get that he's busy, but come on...telling someone who just put $$ in your pocket that you can't be bothered to look for something that is SUPPOSED to be available on your website!?!?) and obviously very stuck on himself. Epic fail, Mr. Yate.

    Very useful in defeating the job search engines!!

    I've purchased this book twice, once in paper back and second on the nook. I've loaned the original book out to a friend and he landed a job within 2 weeks of completing the book and working on his resume. I unfortunately was unable to get this book back for obvious reasons. I have then purchased the Nook version and was quite disappointed at the formatting of the book. All of the references were not scaled to true size. Most of which was illegible due to the size. I would only recommend this book if you are getting the paperback edition. Skip on the nook version!!
