If you have been out of the job market for quite a few years this is a good book to buy and read, as it goes through the step on how to apply for positions in the 21st century, i.e. networking, recruiters and internet. All of which is good information for the modern day job hunter. If you are not looking for this type of help then it is just a plain only book of examples and it is probably worth just browsing the internet for examples and not to buy this book.

Lots and lots of cover letters,styles and information. Very helpful!

I think the letters in this book are just average, and they focus on me, me, me. There is nothing that helps the writer craft a letter to meet the needs of the employer. A good title, but this books misses the mark.

This is a good book for anyone job hunting who puts in considerable effort on mailings. It is packed with well written letters that (according to the author) get results and generate phone calls. I haven’t been succesful yet, but I just read the book yesterday. It is well written, though, and served to energize my search efforts. I think it’s worth the money.

Excellent book it showed me all I needed to write the perfect cover letter and it was incredibly easy to read and showed excellent examples of all different types of job seeking situations. I highly recommend this to anyone…from professionals to those seeking part-time employment, well done Mr. Yate!
