To have a chance of landing an interview, you must first grab a hiring manager's attention. Your resume is a sales document.

This introduction will create excitement in hiring managers and motivate them to want to learn more. In other words, you need an introduction that will lead to interviews.
Most job seekers understand how important the start of their resume is, but this is also the part of their resume that they struggle with the most. The result is typically a weak, uninspiring start that is completely ineffective.
This book offers the solution. It is entirely focused on Objective Statements and Professional Summaries, the two most common styles of introductions. Other resume writing books provide a little advice on a wide range of resume writing topics. They try to answer every question a job seeker might have, but provide limited depth on each topic.
