Helpful book August 4, 2010 L. Kujawa This book was purchased as an update for the same book that was 10 years older. It is very helpful and current. Gives you cover letters for both mail and e-mail sending.
Good reference July 1, 2010 markting_guru This book helped me create many very professional cover letters. The greatest thing about this book is that it covers almost all the documents you need throughout the whole process except for resumes. I've already used it in networking letters, and thank you letters. If you are not very good at sentence structure, this book has some awesome phrases to help you out for any situation.
Fluff June 29, 2010 S. Bartlett (New Zealand) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
As a manager, I review many cover letters a year. I would consider most of the example covers in this book of poor quality, with many downright "corney". I found nothing in this book useful to me personally (my focus was on creating on a good cover for a senior management position). This book is simply too broad in scope to have anything substantial to say about any one area. I'd re-title it "Beginning Cover Letters", and that would be generous.
I'd advise anyone considering purchasing this book to thumb through it at a physical bookstore first (but always buy from Amazon if you decide you like it :-) ).
Excellent June 6, 2010 K Mac I haven't finished reading every chapter, but the chapters I have read are excellent. I can't wait to use the suggestions! This is the best book I have read on cover letters! I bought several books from resume's to cover letters and interview books and I have to say, this is the best one I have read. My suggestion is to purchase this book.

I have been in the field of working with customers for 34 years who are seeking employment.I know the importance of a clear and concise cover letter in applying for work. Martin Yaes is one of my favorite authors. He provides valuable information to people seeking asssitance in writing an effective cover letter. The Cover Letter is the sales pitch for the resume. Great book!!
