Not bad, but not enough

I agree with one of the earlier reviewers; this book is more a compendium of (many) examples than a practical guide to making your resume shine.

As a certified professional, full-time executive resume writing expert, I know that personalized information and details can make all the difference. (NOT to be confused with personal details and information, like hobbies.)

Take care not to copy the resumes in this (or any) too exactly. This makes your resume too "cookie-cutter." It looks just like those created by inexpensive resume writing software (or cheap resume writing services).

... You're attempting to sell a very expensive product of uncertain quality to company management.

This book can help you, but remember that you can't afford NOT to have a professional-looking resume and marketing documents with the correct content.

Good Luck,

John Todd

don't leave work without it

I've used Asher's Executive Bible for several years now. My brother recently lost his job at IBM and I immediately bought him a copy of his own.

In this market your resume is little more than another unwanted piece of junk mail. You need to be polished and must stand out from an increasingly large crowd to find a good position and further your career.

Asher's Executive Bible gives you practical examples of actually resumes. He points out successful presentation techniques and styles.

There's no need to dumb down your resume and grovel for a job - any job. Asher's Bible has allowed my to manage my career onward and upward. He can do the same for you.

I wanted it to be better

As a professional resume writer with experience in senior executive-level resume writing, I bought this book because I was in a creative slump and was looking for some inspiration. This book contains examples of resumes written in very traditional, very standard formats, but nothing inventive. I also would have liked to see more about cover letters.

What I found most unhelpful about this book was the amount of text the author devoted to touting his own writing prowess and the shameless plugs throughout for his resume writing services. On a side note, I find myself suspicious of the glowing 5-star reviews given anonymously by "a reader"...

I would sleep with this book under my pillow if I could...

An excellent book! Absolutely one of the best exec. resume books out there. This is a must read. I reference it whenever I have a question, and think this is one of the best comprehensive resume books out there. Thanks! Laura, Apex Resumes, www.apexresumes.com

Whether he's giving hints on getting head-hunted, upgrading the reader's current position, or launching an all-out top level job hunt, Asher has the tricks of the trade, and the successful executive client base to back it up.
