Book Reviews of Career Match: Connecting Who You Are with What You'll Love to Do

Book Review: Informative!!
Summary: 4 Stars

I found this book to be very informative, but it was also so much fun that I couldn't put it down.The self-assessment test was very user-friendly and helpful.I was given a list of jobs that are good fits for me as a "Green/Gold Introvert".Although, as the book says, the list is not exhaustive, I did find it helpful, as well as informative.Pick up a copy and see what you think!!!
