A Jobseeker's 101,
This review is from: How to Get a Job in a Recession 2012: A Comprehensive Guide to Job Hunting in the 21st Century, Complete with Masses of Free Downloadable Bonuses (Paperback)
This is a jobseeker's 101 that takes you from preparation for the job hunt through to a job offer. As one of many unemployed graduates, I've found the whole job-hunting process very tough and frustrating, but Denise breaks the process down and goes through it very logically. It's a bit like having a buddy to guide you through!The book is simple and easy to read, while also being comprehensive, and gave me a few gems of information that I hadn't found in hours of trawling the internet. It's left me a lot more focussed and knowledgeable on what I need to do to get ahead.

This review is from: How to Get a Job in a Recession 2012: A Comprehensive Guide to Job Hunting in the 21st Century, Complete with Masses of Free Downloadable Bonuses (Paperback)
Great book! When there is so much information available on-line one doesn't really know what to believe. As someone who can feel a little daunted by information-overload I found this a very helpful tool in bringing everything together and allowing me to focus on what is important. Whilst remaining honest it also helped me believe that what I want is achievable, and as confidence is so important when job hunting this was exceptionally beneficial. Highly recommended.

A one stop shop for all my graduate recruitment needs.,
This review is from: How to Get a Job in a Recession 2012: A Comprehensive Guide to Job Hunting in the 21st Century, Complete with Masses of Free Downloadable Bonuses (Paperback)
As a final year University student starting to look for graduate jobs, How to Get a Job in a Recession contains everything I need to know to prepare for interviews, assessment centres and completing applications themselves.This book is my secret weapon to give me the edge against other graduates and I have so far used it successfully to progress through to the next stages of graduate schemes for a few very large within employers in the UK. Graduates are facing a whole variety of tests, interviews and assessments to secure a graduate job now and this book contains detailed advice on how to approach of the different scenarios that you will be faced with as you progress through recruitment processes. For £11.99, which could be the difference between you landing a salary of £25k or £6.50 per hour, it really is a no brainer. Buy this book!
