This course was fabulous, inspiring and gives you so many amazing tools to get your job search going from 0 to 60. If you do the work, complete the exercises and actually absorb the content/resources provided there's a lot of room for improvement. I've given a lot of the same advice in this course to other job seekers but sometimes we have to hear again what next steps should be. Highly recommend. Stop watching whatever show and do this instead.

I loved how useful the resources sections were at the end of each chapter, I've made a copy of everything and bookmarked the links, and to top it off, a new 2018 salary survey got emailed directly to me as an update just as I'm going into negotiations. I've heard job hunting "tips and tricks" more times than I care to admit, but you are the first to make it relevant to looking for in demand marketing and tech jobs in 2017. I will probably still stick to my two-page resume (*gasps*) but I think I'm more prepared to evaluate opportunities (job descriptions), know my worth, and position my career highlights in a better way. Thanks ladies, great job.
