What are others saying about this book?
What an exciting new book! It is both innovative and well written. Using metaphors as the frame for analysis, Ms. Keates draws out some of the negative aspects of assuming a 'sales' metaphor when viewing the job search process. Ms. Keates introduces a new metaphor of integrity that includes ethics, dignity and authenticity. This is a book that needs to be on the shelf of job seekers and anyone working with the job search process.

“Not for Sale! shows job searchers how to transcend the widely accepted truism that we need to “sell” ourselves to get a job. Cathy Keates deftly unravels why selling is a less powerful metaphor for the job search process than the act of being yourself. It’s an inspiring message with lots of thoughtful proof to back it up”.
Karen Schaffer, career coach and bestselling author of “Hire Power” and “The Job of Your Life”
What a relief! Finally a new mindset that empowers people to be who they are and succeed in all ways. Cathy writes with wisdom and compassion about both sides of the spectrum (sales and integrity) and how good it feels to focus on integrity.
