"...the author included his own experience in the book...very helpful to readers...shifts the tone of the book from academic...to emotional and relatable...important for readers who might be too unmotivated to look for a job.
"His many motivational expressions...descriptions of how to overcome the feeling of failure and hopelessness...add a level of relatability to him...rather than...just being an author instructing his readers on what to do."
