Craft a resume that gets results

Many resumes are screened by technology or human gatekeepers before they ever reach a decisionmaker. And when they do, the average review lasts only seconds before a judgement is made.

Resumes For Dummies, 9th Edition delivers an easy-to-read walkthrough for job seekers packed with the essential skills, tools, and strategies you need to land your next role. The book shows you how to create a resume that's compelling, concise, informative, and eye-catching, with plenty of real-world examples. You'll learn how to tailor your resume for each opportunity and audience, helping you to stand out, get interviews, and move your career forward.

Inside:

  • Write powerful action statements that tell the story of your experience
  • Follow step-by-step guides for using generative AI tools to draft a powerful resume while avoiding common, critical mistakes
  • Optimize your resume for algorithmic and automated screening tools while impressing human reviewers

Perfect for career changers, young professionals launching their careers, and those re-entering the workforce after an extended break, Resumes For Dummies, 9th Edition is a hands-on, start-to-finish roadmap to crafting a stellar resume.

You should expect to receive your refund within four weeks of giving your package to the return shipper, however, in many cases you will receive a refund more quickly. This time period includes the transit time for us to receive your return from the shipper (5 to 10 business days), the time it takes us to process your return once we receive it (3 to 5 business days), and the time it takes your bank to process our refund request (5 to 10 business days).

We can ship to virtually any address in the world. Note that there are restrictions on some products, and some products cannot be shipped to international destinations.

When you place an order, we will estimate shipping and delivery dates for you based on the availability of your items and the shipping options you choose. Depending on the shipping provider you choose, shipping date estimates may appear on the shipping quotes page.

Please also note that the shipping rates for many items we sell are weight-based. The weight of any such item can be found on its detail page. To reflect the policies of the shipping companies we use, all weights will be rounded up to the next full pound.
