The One Book Every Career Changer Must Read

What Color Is Your Parachute? 2011: A Practical Manual for Job-Hunters and Career-Changers

College freshmen flunk more subjects and change more courses compared to college sophomores, juniors and seniors. It is a statistical fact. More often than not college freshmen are clueless about  what courses to take to prepare them for jobs they suitably and happily fit in.


Do you ever  wonder why in high school there  was only one Career Week to probe a myriad of career choices?   Such a short period to prepare for a lifetime endeavor.


Lucky are those people, who as a child played with toy stethoscope and became a successful doctor later on in life. Or those kids who hum in perfect pitch  nursery rhymes and became international singers when they grew up. For some finding the career they love just naturally fell into their laps and considered it a no-brainer. Kudos to them!


But what about those individuals who had to wade through different college courses and jobs to find that one calling that is meant for them? That is where this book  What Color Is Your Parachute by Richard Bolles (now on its 2011 edition) comes in. Reading this book changed the way i perceived life's avocation. It really helped me with my career choices and i recommend it for you, your child or those who need career guidance.


What Color Is Your Parachute is a simple guideline to help you find your most favorite skill, favorite environment to work in and favorite subjects that will eventually lead you to a job you would never realized, want. It is a perfect graduation gift.Seo Tricks.
