How to Find Work: in the 21st Century Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is aimed at the younger job seeker or students still in school. It does a decent job of helping them identify strengths and how to market themselves. It has a good section on using social media. It doesn't go into any area too deeply, but is a broad brush stroke to the job search process. It comes with a CD which is nice if sitting down and reading a book is not your thing.
