[Lynn Yeo · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was a very readable book, provides insight on how to understand my strengths, my personal/social values, my work skills & my learning style. This will enable me to have an indication on the jobs suited for me. Very engaging!

[Ivy Digest · Rating 1 out of 5]

Too basic. Everything has been tackled in every other job hunt book. No specific strategies to find a job nor new data on how employment has changed since COVID.

Best to read "Recalculating" by Lindsey Pollak which gives a comprehensive career plan and effective tips to find your a job or switch careers.

A quick read with an easy to follow process to help you understand who you are. I’d recommend using a longer values list or a tool such as personalvalu.es which is useful and gives you a screen saving with your tip 5.
