"Nelson's writing style keeps you engaged from the first page to the last." - Ted Blosser, Senior Account Executive, Box.com
"In Push, Nelson Wang's finest accomplishment is the transparency and sincerity in which he writes that can be identified within the first 10 pages." - Hansen Shieh, MBA Student at Columbia University
While I feel that the book, overall, is most relevant to those who are only starting to carve a professional niche or building their career, there are useful recommendations on how a more experience professional can refresh his/her Resume and qualifications to make them competitive given today's abundance of options in the job market. Short and useful, overall a good read, one can never go wrong reading the suggestions Mr. Wang makes in order to push for the career one deserves. PUSH is an apt title, too, as it is really all about pushing yourself from the doldrums, above the doubts that may start to set it, as you continue to focus on that prized career that brings you satisfaction from all facets, and makes you a truly valuable asset to any enterprise that recognizes your worth.
