Book Reviews of What Color Is Your Parachute Workbook: How to Create a Picture of Your Ideal Job or Next Career
Book Review: Now more than ever, a "must read" for job hunters:
Summary: 5 Stars
"What Color is Your Parachute" has long been a classic to recommend to job hunters and career changers, and this year's (the 1999) edition is even better. A bestseller in general, and the best-selling job-hunting book in the world, "Parachute" offers intelligent, informed, and compassionate advice on finding a job. If you ever bought a previous edition (author Richard Bolles has written one annually since 1970) and had trouble working through it, or if you've heard others criticize "Parachute" for being too unwieldy or impractical, then take a look at the 1999 edition. It's more concise and user-friendly, pointing out, for example, the easiest methods of job hunting as well as those that require a little more work. It also has simplified checklists such as "Ten Tips for Impatient Job Hunters or Career Changers." Best of all, readers are not shortchanged by the shortened version. Those wishing to benefit from the wealth of knowledge that Bolles has to offer can find sections that were dropped in this edition at the author's website (the address of which is listed in the book.) Not surprisingly, one of the sections on the web is about using the Internet to find a job. No matter how much time or energy you have to spend on job hunting, you will no doubt benefit, as many of my clients have, from "What Color is Your Parachute." Now more than ever, it offers some of the best and most basic advice for job hunters and career changers of all kinds.
