5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect CV, 5 Aug 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Perfect CV (Paperback)
If you want to get ahead in your career then I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants their CV to get noticed. The most important information you may need to know in order to do a good CV is in this book. It's broken down in chapters making it easy on the eye - so you won't get bored. And you can go back for reference quite easily. If it could have more of something I would say more examples of CVs. But this is not a very bad negative since it's the advice from the author that is most important. Besides for the price of this book it's definitely worth the money. I've flicked through other books and they are not as good plus they cost more (probably double for what you would pay for this). This book should be read alongside 'The Perfect Interview' - also by the same author.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for job-seekers, 20 Dec 2000
By A Customer
This book helped me get my big break! There is a lot of sense in here and if you follow Eggert's examples your CV will get noticed. To be read alongside "The Perfect Interview" by anyone looking for a cool career move, these books will help you make the most of the experience and talents you have, and get you thinking positively.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the only book you need. Quick and easy to read, 12 Nov 2001
By A Customer
Don't buy any other CV book..just buy this one. Do you need to know how to write your mission statement? - It is explained in detail on how to do it. What type of words to use? - They are listed. Best layout? How to present your skills in the way that shows you added value to your company. Much more is within this small book. Its for less than four pounds... you must buy this book. Also you must buy the "The Perfect Interview"
