reviewed on + 54 more book reviews


From Booklist
Journalist Kleiman's advice is sound, practical, and laced with humor as she guides the reader in staving off "bad job days." Her coaching covers almost every aspect of an individual's career. Thrown an illegal interview question? Dance around it graciously. Handed an employment contract? Get a legal eagle to review it first (but you'll have to put your name on the dotted line). Faced with the big bad boss? Don't react or show anger--though well-placed humor might help. And so on. Plus, if readers are tired of going through "yet another" career hints book, Kleiman's "coach's tips," printed strategically in front of each different point of discussion, can easily be skimmed.
