Critics Review
‘Rocket engineer or hat maker, this passionate in-depth book will help you hone your skills, unleash your best qualities, drive your pathway and turbocharge your career to its ultimate success. A must-read for every step in your professional life.’
Julia Ross, Managing Director, Julia Ross Group
‘This is an essential book because it addresses a crucial trend that affects us all. What made us employable previously is not likely to be what makes us employable now or in the future.
‘Written with clarity by someone who has been matching people to jobs for many years, this book unpacks the key attributes that make one employable, and then provides a complete road map on how to stay current and ready for the best opportunities.
‘It’s a lively and practical read, an essential weapon in the battle against job uncertainty or insecurity. Full of anecdotes and practical examples, this book uncovers the “secrets” to employability! Roxanne is a deep expert in this area with 25 years of experience. And it shows!’
Greg Savage, Recruitment expert
‘Employable is an easy-to-read handbook that covers everybody, not just the usual target of school leavers or graduates. Anyone can benefit from this book, even if you’re not looking for a job change right now. There are interesting stories, personal anecdotes and the all-important practical advice to consider when thinking or re-thinking a career choice. But I also enjoyed the book just for its sheer “readability”.’
Dr Sue Slowikowski, Undergraduate Advisor and Public Relations Lecturer, School of Business, University of Wollongong
‘Rox Calder has always had a special connection with her clients. She looks at the person and the process from a holistic perspective and takes time to understand the characteristics of each person. Rox finds a way to bring their strengths to the forefront and to strengthen areas of less security, resulting in a confident, well-rounded candidate employers yearn for. Thoughtful, kind, clever and insightful, Rox covers all the prerequisites and adds so much more to ensure you can stand out and put your very best foot forward. As an experienced professional recruiter, Rox shares her invaluable insight, knowledge and advice on how to ensure you are at the head of the queue when it comes to employability. From attitude to skill set, presentation to communication, this book will show you how to be memorable for all the right reasons.’
