He asks, WHAT skills do you most love to use? WHEREin what fieldwould you most love to use them? And HOW do you find such a job without depending on agencies and ads? This book is not only about finding a job in hard times. It's about finding your passion. In the words of Fortune magazine: " Parachute remains the gold standard of career guides." "Ideally, everyone should read What Color Is Your Parachute? in the tenth grade and again every year thereafter." Anne Fisher, Fortune "It was one of the first job-hunting books on the market. It is still arguably the best. And it is indisputably the most popular." Fast Company " Parachute is still a top seller and it remains the go-to guide for everyone from midlife-crisis boomers looking to change their careers to college students looking to start one." New York Post "There's Parachute , and then there's all the rest. . . . a life-changing book." Career Planning and Adult Development Journal What Color Is Your Parachute? is the world's most popular job-hunting guide, with 10 million copies sold, in 20 languages. This New York Times and BusinessWeek best seller answers such questions as: ÒI was just laid off from my current job. What do I do first?Ó See page 3. ÒWhat are the most helpful job sites on the Internet, out of the thousands that are there?Ó See page 5. ÒWhat are the five bestand worstways to hunt for a job?Ó See page 24. ÒI haven't a clue how to do salary negotiation. Help!Ó See Chapter 7 (starting on page 99). ÒIn general, what are employers looking for?Ó See page 18. ÒWhat interview questions can I expect to be asked, and how do I answer them?Ó See Chapter 6 (starting on page 71). ÒI'm over 50. What special problems do I face when I go job-hunting?Ó See Chapter 10 (starting on page 143).

This item didn’t come in exactly as pictured, but the seller responded immediately and was very gracious in offering me a partial refund even bough I wasn’t expecting one for what I paid for the item. I have bought from this seller before, and they are reputable and stand behind the products they sell. My other transactions with them have been perfect. Great communication. Packaging and price were good. Fairly fast shipping, too. Thanks.

    Didn't read this edition but if its like old editions worth every penn

    For a down economy, the old editions of this book is the cure. This guy asks you to look deeply into how the world and job searching really works as well as who you are as a person so that you'll realize what you like or desire to do for a living. If you're just getting out of college or high school or if you're returning to work then this book will get you started in the right direction. In today's world, there is a place for you. Especially if you become a place for the world or for people.
