I am simply overwhelmed with the information that you have mentioned in
your book such an amazing manner. I would have never known this without
you. I also found the introductory information very interesting as well
as the sequence of the chapters.
I hope and strongly recommend every one to buy a copy of these books, not
only for their use but for use by future members of their families or
friends, one more thing I wanted to say is that I couldn't put the book
down until I've read the very last word.
Thanks for a job well done; you're ranked first on my list!

Everything you need to know and just what you want to know is presented
in straightforward, sympathetic English that is above all ESL
user-friendly. It reads less like a technical manual than the record of
a conversation with a supportive and motivating counselor who is not
without a whimsical sense of humor.
The book gives clear advice on how to write a resume, complete a job
application, how to prepare for and succeed in a job interview as well
as get through the various tests one may have to pass through to get the
job. The authors considerable experience offers clues on the tactics of
interviewers as well as the “wrong answers” that could sideline the
applicant very quickly whatever his or her level of competence in the
essentials of the job being applied for.
How to Make them Say…You’ve Got the Job is suffused with the guiding
personality of the author who begins by discussing not first practical
steps, but the dreams, beliefs, goals and values driving the applicant to
the workplace. The task of managing feelings and potential reactions to
the unexpected are addressed as they are likely to occur. Getting a job
is marketing oneself. We tend to see ourselves from our own inner
perspective, especially when entering the job market for the first time.
We are challenged to see ourselves as others see us, so our education
for job hunting is to help us get a perspective from the point of view
of others, in particular potential employers. Alromaithy gives us good
advice about this as well as tools, guiding us through a personal SWOT
analysis, for example.
This is certainly a handy tool for the international job seeker as well
as a resource for HR professionals, teachers, trainers and counselors to
make available to potential job seekers

I have just completed reading Dr. Abdulhamied’s latest book (How to make
them say you’ve got the job) . The author was clear in his writing on
how to persuade others to plan their career. The book is very useful and
it's written in a simple English that can be read by any one despite
their English language level.
Thanks a lot Dr. Abdulhamied for an excellent book.
