Got this book today. Spent ages searching through everything on the shelf but liked this the best. Covers all aspects of job hunting; where to look, social networking, CV writing, cover letters and interview technique. Includes sample CV's and cover letters etc. Thick but not too thick. Well laid out and easy to read.
And at this price, it's a bargain!
