I saw other people complaining about the content. I personally thought the book ROCKED, except I do agree that it is not for those who are going from college with little or no exp. to a full time position. This book had great examples of networking letters, advice seeking letters, resume letters, and of course excellent advice on cover letters. It gave clear step by step instructions with examples on how to match your cover letter to the job offer. Sounds simple, but a lot of other books miss it.
Great

I found the book to be clear, concise, and well written. It addresses key points to cover letter writing, and illustrates them with examples. It is an excellent guide for those who have an employment history. However, it does not address the needs of recent college graduates who are looking for their first job. I am assuming that this need would be covered by another publication. This omission does not detract from its usefullness to the intended audience.
A must have reference for job seekers! The best!!

This is the best book of its kind! The author shows the reader how to create an original cover letter with impact. He gives examples of elements of both good and bad cover letters. Additionally, he gives example cover letters for a variety of situations, as well as thank you, follow-up, and networking letters. I reviewed a few different books from my library before I decided this was one that I must have.
