Well, I did find myself wondering just how a lot of UK employers would feel about people walking into their offices and saying 'hi! talk to me!'. There's a lot in both this book and the other one (http://the-lady-lily.livejournal.com/751175.html#cutid2) I posted about recently about getting 'informational interviews' and just talking to people about stuff and contacts and so on and so forth - and I honestly don't know how the UK market would cope with that kind of thing. Although I suspect I may be in a position to have no option but to try.
