I bought this book in the wake of layoffs. My number hasn't come up yet, but if it does, I feel much better prepared to immediately implement the job finding strategies here and put myself back in the working force. The fact that I'm currently employed is the only reason I didn't give the book five stars, but frankly, knowing that more layoffs are coming, I certainly am resting easier knowing I have this as a roadmap for employment. The system is broken down into simple, achievable, realistic steps and covers the large variety of current avenues available for job seekers with each one getting a dedicated chapter so you can easily focus on a particular area if you want. Again, this book isn't only worthwhile if you're unemployed, it's a good read for reducing stress if you're at a company waiting to find out if you're in the next group of downsized employees, because for me, I'm no longer wondering what I'm going to do. I now have a practical system to follow to get back into the workforce.
