Book Review – Teen Dream Jobs – How to Find the Job You Really Want Now

I just completed reading, “Teen Aspiration Careers: How to discover the position you actually want now!” by Nora E. Coon.  I should say that I was not extremely amazed with the material of the book.  As the title indicates, the guide is about assisting teens locate careers.  The author presents details on how to uncover a position, resume tips, how to gown for the interviews and other advice for teen occupation seekers.  The data is great, a great deal of it is outdated while. 

Here job searching for tips seems more suitable to a task search in 1999, fairly than 2009.  She hardly touches on the online and the new occupation boards built for teenagers and the prosperity of assets available for teen work seekers.  The reality is that all of the info introduced in this guide can simply be located on the net with a uncomplicated google research.  The author does not give any new or slicing edge approaches that make it really worth forking about money for.

What I did like about the guide is the quizzes that she offers.  There are a wide range of self evaluation work out that seriously get the reader wondering about what they like, and dislike, and what they are passionate about.  There is also a quiz that will support determine which occupation route would be most acceptable primarily based on your identity traits.  I actually took some of these quizzes myself and I ought to say that I found them to be rather accurate.

In closing, I observed the guide to have some vibrant spots but overall I felt the book did not offer enough new data to warrant a acquire.
