a breath of air in the spawning asphyxiated world of research jobs

This book is a great story for me. I virtually met Alexandra when I helped a friend who was looking for young self-published authors that stood out. By the time I contacted "Chomette" (early 2014) it had to assign the rights to a publishing house. Damn! I had found a rare bird and now he flies! Too bad for me and good for her. Then I followed the rest of the Alexandra year. I found out his world, his website (pen funny) and I was amazed by the huge work that was felling. It goes without saying that seeing a person as friendly succeed is a happiness! I had the chance to win the book in a competition. I, who wanted to make it last until the famous #VendrediLecture is damn! I devoured it in one afternoon.
What to say? I found myself in chomette. His unusual career path, his risk-taking, his disappointments, his hopes. The book is packed with humor, comical situations so implausible that they can only be truthful. Alexandra has the gift of words. She can boost morale, find the positive where it seems bleak. She's a fighter! Some tips and tricks here and there, a good dose of optimism, the pellet to spare and I fully agree on several points: you have to know to stand out. Our sweet madness is not an obstacle, and especially nothing ventured nothing happens for nothing.
For me, an educational and lively reading. A breath of air in the ruthless world of job search (which I am one). The hard part is to keep the morale and confidence in us. This book is a good support for just keeping your head above water.
I wish chomette the success it deserves! His book to be translated into 14 languages, made into a film and read and loved by Simon Baker!
