User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars Excellent book for those who are in the market for a new job!
I really liked the ideas Martin Yate introduces in his book, Knock em Dead, the Ultimate Job Search Guide. He’s updated parts of this book which deal with the technology of today which is extremely important.
Another idea that is in his book deals with networking electronically, which is one huge advantage prospective employees can have over another candidate.

5 Stars great content if you’re ready for it
I read this book back in 1994 when I entered the workforce out of college. It was extremely instrumental in giving me a feeling that I had an edge in interviewing and understanding the job process. I think this is a solid book for coming out of school and getting some key points across in terms of desire, aggressiveness, attitude, etc. I couldn’t believe it still in print, but I remember how pumped I would get after reading the book and being super excited about going out and searching for a job. maybe it just helped me see it differently back then and that was the edge I needed.
