A brilliant novel that sets precedents.

This collection from Bottom Dog Press is excellent for anyone who's been looking for a good college-text to get students talking about literature and work. In these stories, students will find their fathers, mothers, uncles, aunts, and even themselves. Literature about work provides a rich opportunity for discussion and learning, and this book is definetely rich in its potential. Bret Comar's story is especially breath-taking.

Out of Work, the best economic history of 20th Century America. The authors document the crimes of government against Americans' economic well-being, an indictment of taxation and all the monstrous and stupid things our government has done to us.

This book successfully gives you what you need to find out if being self employed is possible. It authur gives a much more reallistic comparision of what it takes to make it. All the more newer and recent book on the subject just tell you what you want to hear. This one really prepares you with hard fact comparisions.

As a Career Services professional on a college campus, I have found this book to be a great resource in working with the parents of my students. It answers questions relevant to any college student regardless of type of institution, or academic major. The authors are knowledgeable of the career development process and the current employment market. I give it to parents at Parents Weekend each year. It's one of a kind!

I discovered Max 15 years ago at a recruitment fair where he gave a free presentation on CV writing. I was already so impressed that I kept detailed notes (which I have and refer to, to this day). My next encounter was face-to-face, where I asked his advice on career planning. I followed his advice, as a result of which I have lived (literally) a dream lifestyle ever since. As I write I am in Hong Kong, having made lots more money than I could ever imagine, my success largely fuelled by having done a wide range of jobs that were exactly what I wanted to do at the time, for the money that I wanted to be paid.

The book is very short. Much shorter than my own writing! That is because it give very clear and specific advice without beating around the bush. If you follow the steps he gives, you will find that a) you are much more clear about what you are offering and b) everyone around you is much more clear about your true potential.

I am now working as an executive recruiter, and I really really wish more candidates had read Max's book. Any book for that matter, but I always recommend Perfect CV. It is SO hard to work out what a candidate is capable of, by reading the typical CV that is piled up on my desk.

If you're looking for work, please please do yourself and your potential recruiters a favour by reading Perfect CV.

(Max, if you see this: "thanks!")
