REVIEWS & ENDORSEMENTS

“This book is one of my favourite resources; chalk full of excellent resumes from top talent professionals from across Canada. Sharon has done a lovely job putting together a uniquely flavoured Canadian resource that teaches job seekers the art of resume creation, showcases current resume trends and formats, and aids professionals in taking their work to the next level. I turn to this book time and again for ideas and inspiration – thank you Sharon!”

Adrienne Tom, Principal Certified Professional Resume Writer, Career Impressions

“Canadian resume book a first of its kind – Like many other job seekers, you’ve likely picked up a book or searched online for resume samples — trying to remember, of course, to change American spellings to Canadian. Finally, there’s a resource that’s distinctively our own: Best Canadian Resumes, a book that illustrates that our resumes are distinguished by much more than just spelling.”

Linda White, Special to Sun Media

“ In 2008, I purchased the first edition of your book, Best Canadian Resumes, which proved to be invaluable and at the same time an eye-opener to the wonderful world of value-based resume writing…I did in fact purchase the latest edition and am grateful for doing so – it is excellent! I thoroughly enjoyed using the 1st Edition and found it an absolute necessity during my job search 2.5 years ago and share the same sentiment toward the latest edition. The job market is always changing (as you know very well!) and it seemed only logical to seek the most up-to-date information …Thank you again!”
