Optimize your resume Book

Career Coaching Services. “Optimize Your Resume: Do’s and Don’ts the SamNova Way” was written by SamNova’s career coach and founder, Ed Samuel. It is geared towards those who are in job transition or thinking about advancing their career, students, and recent college grads.

“I have worked with Ed Samuel and he is the consummate professional. In his book, Mr. Samuel shares his roadmap for developing an effective resume; ideas and an overall approach developed over many years as a recruiter, manager, coach, and mentor. This is an easy to follow book that guides the reader through the structure and development of an effective resume. Key points are captured in bold at the end of each chapter. I tended to jump to the highlight points to familiarize myself with them, then move to the start of that chapter and read though the details. This book is well worth the small investment. I can say from personal experience that this approach is a recipe for success! A piece of advice, do not pick and choose ideas from the book thinking that in some areas you know better than the author on this subject. There is a reason for each of the things mentioned here. Follow the recipe.”
