Book Reviews of What Color Is Your Parachute? 2008: A Practical Manual for Job-hunters and Career-Changers

Book Review: speak to us in our shared language, please
Summary: 1 Stars

I couldn't make it very far in this book because its grammar is so bad. The author explains in his preface that we should not complain about the grammar as he's devised a system of his own and it works for him, which I guess means that he is writing only for himself. Meanwhile, the rest of us who know only the shared idiom are left out in the cold.

Summary of What Color Is Your Parachute? 2008: A Practical Manual for Job-hunters and Career-Changers

WHAT COLOR IS YOUR PARACHUTE? is still the best-selling job-hunting book in the world. A favorite of job hunters and career changers for more than three decades, it continues to be a mainstay on best-seller lists, from Amazon.com to Business Week to the New York Times, where it has spent more than six years, and has been translated into 12 languages. The 2008 edition is an even more useful book, with its updated, inspiring, and detailed plan for changing readers' lives. With new examples, instructions, and cautionary advice, PARACHUTE is, to quote Fortune magazine, "the gold standard of career guides."
