Publishers Weekly
Bursting with humor and contagious courage, Pamela Robinson, a 30-year executive-recruiting veteran, and Nadine Schiff, who has morphed from therapist to CBS reporter to writer and film producer, help women who are ready to declare If I Don't Do It Now... to make the life and work changes they want. Robinson and Schiff's book includes anecdotal career makeovers, quizzes for women-on-the-verge and lots of advice on maintaining a savvy attitude (e.g., "After you've been on your interview date, then you have to decide if you're going to be a `Rules girl' and not call until the company does, or if you're going to do the pursuing").
