Testimonials

"One interesting part of this book that stands out against other similar books in the market is Desmond Yeoh shared his resumes that landed him a position with Shopee in 2020 and subsequently Meta in 2022."

— CS Chan, Assoc Prof @ University of Malaya (original post)

"... my first uploaded resume scores 40/100. After utilizing Desmond's advice, my resume right now scores 85/100. Well, I do spot some sections that can be improved, I'll probably get a 90 and above score next time. TLDR: Totally worth the time and money!"

"Hey Desmond, just got time to update my resume and I would like to thank you so much. I think most of the people (including myself) are missing the xyz formula mentioned in ur book, causing the resume to be not impactful. And by having examples and templates in your book really helps when preparing my resume 👍"
