100 SAMPLE LETTERS!!!!!!!!!
I read through it and it is very well done. The writing is lively and you had alot of creative tips. It certainly was engaging for the subject matter. I particularly like your use of real-world examples and the 100 sample cover letters! The only thing I didn't like about the book was the cover, which seemed a bit cheezy. Barbara Mattleman
This is a great book!
I wanted a cover letter that would make employers sit up and look at me enough to offer me a paid internship. We were told in school that cover letters would either make us or break us to the point of nonexistence. So I bought your book at Amazon.com. Cover Letters That Will Get You the Job You Want is fantastic. Hit a bull's eye. I started to wonder how my old cover letters got responded to when there are the ones done by you going around. I read your book cover to cover, and I am now armed to write.
I do not recommend this book at all
This book is definitley not worth considering if you want are trying to compose an effective cover letter. I have worked in human resources for several years and cover letters starting with either" books are as important as bread..." or "have you not found that granting loans involves knowledge...""I have been thinking of what else I might do to line up new buisiness opportunities..." are just not even worth reading. They do not catch one's attention or at least not the kind of attention you want to attract.The examples provided in the book are nothing but very simple written sentences like"...I wish I had space to list all of my qualities..."- I mean what kind of an excuse is that to make a letter short? I cannot believe this book was recommended on an online job search. It is a joke!
I sure hope this review gets posted as I do think bad reviews also have to be included to ensure the free marketplace of opinion! heikecita
