Job Applications in a Week

by Hilton Catt

Presenting a joined-up overview of the job-hunting process in difficult market conditions, this guide covers the full process from research to CV writing to the interview itself. Its main concerns are how to engage and overcome competition; how to cut down the time spent on applications; and how to ensure more of your applications turn into job opportunities rather than rejection letters.

I found it dry, overpriced (considering how short it is) and outdated (nothing about video interviews and a whole page about the importance of being contactable by your landline).

Also expected some practical activities of which there are none except a really easy quiz at the end of each chapter.

It was simple, short, and an easy read. This would be great for young adults seeking first job, those out of the loop, or a refresher.

[Jeffrey Ning · Rating 4 out of 5]

A refresher on applying jobs and getting on the shortlist in a succinct yet informative to ace the process.
