5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for everyone designing, writing or revising a CV, 20 Jan 2000
By A Customer
Lynn Williams' book on CV writing is excellent. I work with a lot of people in handling job change and recommend it to my clients because it provides opportunity for creativity as well merely conveying information. Lynn provides a whole series of "Readymade CVs" and loads of space for you to be yourself in applying for that crucial appointment. Buy it!
