This book was OK - but mostly, it was common sense. I would recommend it to those who have not already been given similar advice from employment counsellors or even from headhunters. Get a well-rounded self-education by reading several tomes in this category. Never only get your advice from one source.

This had some really useful tips. Highly recommend for job seekers.

This book gave great ideas of what to do during an interview.

This book had some very useful information in it, especially because I will be back on the job-search/interview path later this year, but I found the author to be a bit full of himself and that turned me off some of the writing.

This book contains some great insights from the employer's perspective and great advice for the interviewee.

Anything of use in this book is basic common sense. Unfortunately, these common sense statements are interspersed with large amounts of questionable advice, such as post interview thank you notes to EVERYONE from the interview panel to the receptionist; and pestering people with daily emails for 6 months to show you are "tenacious" and want the job. These suggestions are based on anecdotal evidence, largely from the author's own experiences. This advice will not work in every instance: one person's "tenacious" is another person's (most people's?) "desperate and annoying." As with many of the other "in my experience" moments in this book, the efficacy of this approach will be hugely context dependent, and should not be offered as universal advice. This reliance on anecdotal evidence, unsurprising perhaps given the 'insider advice' usp, is therefore, more often a hindrance than a source of good intelligence. Furthermore, the anecdotes themselves, rather than offering any sort of insight, often serve merely as platforms for the author's own self-aggrandisement. This becomes increasingly wearisome as the book progresses. Finally, the repeated claims made for the "science" of REAPRICH are absurd and overblown in the extreme.
