[Sayed Mohammed · Rating 4 out of 5]

In my opinion, Ultimate CV is a great book and provides great tips and tricks. Also, the author explains how to build an identity and format the CV. Even the CV examples are helpful and cover a wide range of industries.
However, I wish the author explained and tackled more on the CV build and design process.
I recommend the book if you are in the process of building a CV or you want to build a CV.

Ultimate reference for creating CV by building your professional identity and capitalise your strengths to your advantage. Templates come aplenty categorised according to various industries. Good reference or refresher to any job seeker in any stage of their job hunting.

Some great advice, based primarily round "target job deconstruction"; let down a bit by typos in the sample CVs.
