pastures’ when employment opportunities in aviation and travel are scarce. Whether you seek to get ‘in the front door’ of the aviation and travel industry or are exiting ’through the back door’
on your way to other types of employment, this book will be a valuable aid."Praise for other books in the Real-Resumes Series:"Distinguished by its highly readable samples." - Library
Journal"These excellent new guides don’t just provide the usual coverage on how to write a resume. They provide industry-specific examples, industry-specific tips and cautions, and
industry-specific strategies based on real-world resumes. Since many technical types aren’t writers, this comes as a special gift; select a winning format, plug in your background specs, and
away you go. It’s that easy--with Real-Resumes in hand."-- The Midwest Book ReviewTestimonials from people who have successfully used this book:"The resumes and cover letters in the
