The author, a former recruiter of 10 years provides respectable insight in a simple and clear manner with passion and sincerity which visibly shows through the pages making this a great go-to book for any job seeker.I came into this book at an atypical angle in the hopes to improve my employment chances with potential clients. Being self-employed I have to sell my ideas & skills on a plate on a regular basis but had difficulties in increasing engagements as often as I hoped.I kept my regular clients but seriously needed more to help balance the books which made life stressful considering my family's financial needs. We needed that extra boost of income and after reading this, I was able to impediment a number of valuable ideas into the way I go about getting more engagements with potential clients by using the elevator speech and personal branding tactics in chapter 5 and 6 with a bit of negotiating & rapport in the mix, I was able to increase my work engagements by 3% in less than a week.The whole experience is exciting and I am certainly more confident and motivated then I was prior to the read. I recommend this book wholeheartedly to job seekers from all walks of life, wanting simple yet useful direction.
