Rezension zu „Being Geek “
"In kleinen unterhaltsamen Häppchen (40 Kapitel) präsentiert Lopp die wichtigsten Stationen einer Karriere vom Einstellungsgespräch bis zu der Entscheidung, sich einer neuen Aufgabe zuzuwenden. Aber auch die Tipps zu alltäglichen Situationen, wie man etwa effektive Vorträge hält oder mit Querulanten umgeht, kommen nicht zu kurz. Eine gute Lektüre nicht nur für Entwickler!" - weave, 06/2010."In direkter Ansprache bespricht er mit einem fiktiven Gegenüber die Motivation für einen Jobwechsel [...], die Strategie fürs erste Gespräch und weitere et cetera. Frischgebackene Dipl.-Infs und Quereinsteiger mit ein bisschen Erfahrung dürften die direkte Ansprache und die klaren Worte goutieren." - iX, Januar 2011
