From RECENT Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "A valuable and inspiring book on how to learn about yourself, understand the professional ecosystem, and find your dream job. Bolles first wrote this book in 1975 and has updated it every year since, and it is the best-selling career guide book ever. The Self Inventory chapters were difficult but particularly profound and helped me understand better what I like, what I'm good at, and ultimately how to pursue accomplishing my mission in life. Truly a gem of a book, and one I will revisit every half decade to make sure I am still on track following my bliss. Highly recommended for those who are not in love with their jobs and for those just entering the job market."
