Reviews


SPHR study guide
Thank you! It came in good condition and will be useful for my upcoming exam.

Don't be misled!
This book is a sham. It boasts that if one is able to complete the provided study exams consistently in the 90 percentile they will be fully prepared for the SPHR exam. NOT TRUE. NOT TRUE. NOT TRUE.

The study and exam prep questions provided are not structured as those on the actual exam and do not encompass all the areas of knowledge required to successfully pass the exam. I studied diligently (using this book) for two months, was able to pass the exams repeatedly at 96%-98% and FAILED the SPHR exam. Upon completion of the exam I was not able to find information relating to many of the exam questions in the entire book. 'SPHR Exam Prep' was a waste of my valuable time and money; don't be misled!

I LOVE THIS BOOK!
I thought this book delved deeper into the issues I encountered during the SPHR exam, and I appreciated that it concentrated only on the SPHR exam and didn't try to accomplish too much in a single book. I was so impressed with the study material that I will continue to use it as a reference book in my career. I liked the other book I purchased to prepare for the exam, but I truly thought the quality of information in this one was better.

Seriously Disappointed
I was seriously disappointed in this book. It covers a lot of information, but the sample questions and material do not come close to the real test or way questions are asked on the real certification test.

Very Disappointing
We purchased the book over a month ago for this test that my wife will take in January. Until now, we still have not received it yet. We are not making a fuss. We will know better next time.
