Does Your Resume Wear Blue Jeans?: A Student's First Guide to Finding a Real Job After College--New and Revised EDI Tion

I would recommend this book to *anyone* writing or revising a resume...if only it were in print! Ed Good is unfailingly easy to read, and he makes his points clearly and often humorously. This book covers topics from graphic layout to syntax to paper selection, all with the goal of helping the reader create a resume that will catch an employer's eye and secure the reader an interview. Personally, I found it an ego boost to look objectively at my past experiences and think about ways to "advertise" them. I ended up with a resume that immeasurably outshined the one I started with, but also with a much better sense of what specific strengths I could offer an employer. Regardless of how sure you already are that you know what you're doing, this book can surely teach you a few things about writing your resume.
