HOUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM.

Well-meaning platitudes about reaching for the stars won't find you a job. Whether you're launching your career or doing a midlife reinvention, you need answers. How can I find a job when more and more qualified people are chasing fewer and fewer jobs? How do I keep my job once I have it? Can I really improve my emotional intelligence? How do I answer that interview question? Sure, follow your dreams, and you'll never work a day in your life. Because that field's not hiring. Or get usable, evidence-based career planning advice.

The Third Edition is updated with self-assessments, job market information, and research.
