Expert Resumes for Managers and Executives July 31, 2008
E. C. Rosheck (Jacksonville, FL)
This book was extremely helpful to me as I was revamping my resume to a C-Level status. Based on the samples from different industries and styles, I was able to piece together a unique resume that accomplishes what I want it to...sell me and my credentials without giving everything away. It is a straight forward approach and I would urge a reader to carefully review the different styles and formats before embarking on writing your resume. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to write one for yourself. A lot of us don't want to "brag" about our accomplishments, but that is what it's all about. Challenge, Action and Result (C.A.R.). That is how to approach it. Write an outline before you embark on the project and eliminate the "small" stuff, since that really isn't relevant and save it for the interview. It can be usd later to punctuate a point you want to make. Most of all, stay positive, focused and ethical...always tell the truth. You'll have a clear conscience because of it and if a few prospective employers balk at your accomplishments or whether you are really the capable person you say you are in your resume, re-think whether or not you want to work for that organization. The way you are treated in an interview is a harbinger to the way you'll be treated on the job. Trust your gut and if it doesn't feel right, it probably isn't. Be polite and graciously back out if you feel that it is not for you. Never burn a bridge, both past and present. You never know when you'll need someone's help. This book is a fabulous reference tool and will help get your creative juices flowing. I receommend it because it helped me.

As a professional resume writer with more than 18 years of experience guiding managers and executives to consolidate notable career accomplishments into short, dynamic and compelling career marketing documents, I am qualified to recognize and promote good advice and talent when I see it! This book, Expert Resumes for Managers and Executives is filled with worthy examples from top writers both internationally and in the US, and the content and advice is spot-on. Whether you are an aspiring resume writer looking for a "resume bible" to learn from and hone your craft, or a manager or executive struggling to encapsulate "brand you", you'll find this book a worthy guide and visual mentor in strategically presenting the best you have to offer.

Over 87 Resume samples are included with a little bit of advice how to write them mixed in.
The resumes are split into very specific sections ranging from sales, health care, science and accounting, so for one person a large amount of the book is not hitting a direct target. Good for a career center where many different people will look.
 Good Book! April 12, 2007

This book will definitely help you put together a professional looking resume. A book of substance. Clear and concise. Worth every penny. The first edition was good too.

This book gave me the guidance and outlines that I needed. It provided excellent samples that laid out a resume just as I wanted it to be. The tips were invaluable. I'm working on my new resume now and found that its much better than the old one. It is one I will be proud to sell me to my next employer. To Wendy Enelow and Louise Kursmark, thank you for this book!
