A review by moss
What Color Is Your Parachute? A Practical Manual for Job-Hunters and Career-Changers by Richard Nelson Bolles

informative medium-paced

4.0

Solid book for figuring out who you are as a person (wants, needs, values, skills, disposition, etc.) and finding jobs that match that. The flower exercise is definitely worth completing just to have the important factors in career decisions laid out on paper, very useful for evaluating jobs against. The books guides you through finding the jobs that best fit you and the whole job hunting process. Everything is broken up and explained in a way that makes the process seem less daunting and overwhelming.
Note: I read the 2022 edition.
