Online, May 29, 2013 (Newswire.com) - "Getting Seen: the Ultimate Guide to Creating the Most Important Document of your Life - Your Resume" is now available for the first time in all e-book formats.

Last fall the resume book by career guidance expert James Hale hit the #1 ranking on the Amazon Kindle store under "Resumes." It also hit the # 3 spot under the "Job Hunting" category within the Amazon Kindle store.

For job seekers in this difficult economy "Getting Seen" provides unique advice on standing out in a crowded marketplace. Hales' expert advice dispels the misguided rumors that run rampant in the typical resume advice. Unfortunately, most resumes are nothing more than lifeless lists of a candidate's job history. They don't tell what the candidate has actually done, where he has done it, or why it was important. They don't provide the answers to what the prospective employer is striving to know.

"This is a book that gets to the heart of resume writing and that heart is the idea of using the resume as a teaching tool," explained James D. Smith, Author and President of Iron 2 Iron Equipping. "I've been in the personal development business for almost 20 years and have not come across a better resource for the job seeker or career changer. People pay thousands of dollars for the advice and coaching that is in Getting Seen."

"Getting Seen" examines exactly what recruiters, human resources personnel, and hiring managers are looking for in the resumes that they receive each day, and how job seekers can give it to them. Those who follow James Hale's advice will drastically increase the odds that they will stand out, and that recruiters will call them for a face-to-face interview where they can further 'wow them' with their skills and professionalism.

"I wrote this for any potential job applicant who wants to stand out from the crowd," explained Hale. "If you want the same old resume advice, this book is not for you. If you want to do some pre-resume work and create a tool that immediately puts you in the top 10 percent of job searchers, read on."

In "Getting Seen" Hale explains what employers have come to prefer in terms of resume content, length, and format. These preferences have changed recently due to dramatic changes in technology and increased resume traffic. The author also helps the readers understand the functions of a resume and the psychological profile of the person who evaluates it.

"Getting Seen: the Ultimate Guide to Creating the Most Important Document of your Life - Your Resume" will give job hunters the tools they need to land the job they want. It is now available for only $4.97 in all e-book formats through Smashwords.com and wherever e-books are sold. Published by All Star Press.
