Review: Unique. Not what you would expect of a career guide book
Rating: 5 out of 5

I read many career guides, some of them very good, and yet this book gave me a whole new perspective on career development.Finding Your Career Path without Losing Your Mind is divided into eight chapters that present the chief emotions and feelings inherent in the career-building process: love, happiness, self-esteem, fear, disappointment, anger, grief, and guilt.In each chapter, the author brings information, tips, stories, and practical exercises to foster happiness, motivation and passion, and to deal with concerns, anxieties and rejections on one's way to realizing his/her dream career.I would say this is an Emotional Intelligence guide for every job seeker. It holds a spiritual outlook on life crisis as a lever for growth. I find it extremely helpful in surviving the emotional roller coaster of unemployment and job seeking, and even finding the silver lining in it.
