The advice, materials and phrases in Beyond the Resume arm you with appropriate actions to take and phrases to use. It is not the intent of the book to "prop you up" to sound like someone you are not. Instead, it is to help you speak to your strengths, experiences, and jo ] know-how. The book is a "soup to nuts" kind of book that takes you from the point of initial contact with the hiring authority, through interviewing, and on to closing the deal.
