Summary: Great Book for Recent Grads
Review: As a recent college graduate with a degree in communications I felt confident that I would find a job immediately upon graduation. Unfortunately with today's economy I was told again and again by companies that they were on a temporary hiring freeze but would "keep me in mind". A friend of mine recommended this book to me. Upon reading it I was inspired to keep trying and to work hard to make myself stand out among the other applicants so my resume didn't fall through the cracks. I think this book is a great resource for any recent graduate entering the job market.

Summary: The Real Deal on the Real World !!!
Review: Awesome!!! Too many career books for people starting out are out of touch or patronizing, but JobSmarts tells it exactly like it is. I used it to help me get a job during my senior year, and now that I'm working I still rely on it to get me through things at work. Get it.

Summary: A Great Way To Get Started!
Review: For those who don't have the benefit of learning from the mistakes of a friend or older brother who's looked for a job lately, this book provides practical information in a no-nonsense format. For someone who's looking for a job in today's downsized market place this should be required reading. It certainly helped me.

Summary: Terrific book for young career minded people
Review: This book has helped me quite a bit. It reinforced conventional career wisdom like "treat everyone well" and "accept any position to get in the door." The book also gave me new ideas. I began reading more than the local newspaper because of Bradley and this has made me a much more educated worker. He recommends reading the Wall Street Journal and USA Today everyday. He also gives lots of credit to those who came before him and I really like his reading list at the back of the book. I read many of those books which also turned out to be terrific for me and my career. Scratch that - it has been terrific for my entire life! Get this book now. It is well worth the price.
