Publisher's Synopsis
Hiring managers take 8-10 seconds to skim a resume and decide if they want to read further. Your choice of words, therefore, is vital. The Resume Queen's Job Search Thesaurus and Career Guide is unlike any thesaurus you've ever used. It's a unique guide to communicating, created specifically for professionals in a job search today and containing only words that are relevant to a job search. So although you won't find eight synonyms for the word "snow," there are still a lot/plenty/many/a great number of words. But not so many that this book ends up being too big to carry to the library or career center or outplacement office, or too big to keep by your computer. And unlike other thesauri, this one is full of practical suggestions to enhance your ability to "sell" yourself more effectively, before and after the interview, so you can land the job of your dreams. The author, Joanne Meehl, (aka The Resume Queen) is a career transition management consultant.
