The Google Resume Lib/E Gayle Laakmann McDowell

People from all industries drool over the perks and salary enjoyed by employees at Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Apple, and other tech companies: casual attire, free and unlimited sodas (or even food), flexible hours, onsite luxury gyms, and funky offices. The Google Resume is targeted at people from all industries who crave one of the coveted positions at these top tech firms. It instructs students on what to study and how to prepare, and what career paths to seek, and it explains to job seekers, both technical and non-technical, how to make themselves stand out from the hoards of other candidates seeking jobs at a tech company. The book answers questions such as: What should you major in? What can you do outside of work to make yourself stand out? How do you perform well at work and have it show in your next application? How should you design your resume? How much technical expertise do you need? How should you prep for the interview? How can you do well in the interview?
