Liked It “This book helped me greatly. After 24 years with one employer, I was downsized and so unprepared to enter the job world again. |
Didn’t Like It “This book would probably be more appropriate for someone who does not know what they wish to do with their life. I do, but I also found the book too long and boring. Maybe, it's just me, but I think this was one of the weakest self-help books I read, yet it was also one of the longest.” see full review » see other reviews » |

The infomation expressed in this "Bible" helped me to get back on my feet in no time.
Mr. Bolles is a god send.”
“I'll defer to the many other reviews you'll find on Amazon and elsewhere describing this book as the touchstone and standby of career guides. It's so useful as a starting point in career-related decisions and so healthy in its outlook that it really ought to be required reading for all high school seniors. In the very least, I fully intend to coax my children to read it before they graduate (starting in the year 2026). The book was instrumental in helping me discover my calling as a pharmacist; unfortunately, I read it seven years, two French degrees, a wife and a kid too late. Nevertheless, if you need help deciding on a career and then pursuing it. this may be the only book you need to read. Please keep in mind Dick Bolles releases a substantially different version each year to keep up with changes in the job market.”

“This book is a wonderful book. Someone recommended it for my teenage son several years ago. I am currently trying to figure out what I want to do with my life career wise and this book really helped me to take a good look at where I've been, the skills I have, and how many possibilities are open to me out there. Before reading the book, I was feeling a bit like I didn't have much to offer.
