why we need to send dominic our resumes for exchange of the guide?
It is one way we help to grow the set of people we talk to.
But, just to make it clear, we never ever send your CV to anyone without you giving permission to send it to that particular firm.
is it true that the guide is sortof updated based on the pool of resumes?
It's not really based upon CVs, more on our experience as both headhunters and people who have worked in banking for a long time.
A growing % of the input is from readers and clients who feed back things that need covering.
The "live rat in your coffee" is actually based upon conversations with candidates, but we've smothered the original detail to protect the innocent.
Version 2.1 is under way, and if there's anything you'd like to see more of, let us know.
