Paperback, priced 12.99, ISBN: 1-58008-727-2

Very few job interviews take place over several weeks and are featured on TV. Faced with a tricky question, you can’t phone a friend. Viewers don’t vote whether you leave or stay.

Job hunting is really hard work and if you are looking for a dream job or fancy a career change you need lots of advice ñ and it had better be good advice.

What Color is Your Parachute? is the world’s best-selling job hunting book selling over 8 million copies. Its author, Richard Bolles, has been a leader in the field of career development for more than 30 years.

The 2006 edition has been completely revised and restructured for 21st century job-hunting. Job loss, vacancies and the impact of outsourcing are discussed in detail. There are updated references for using the Internet. Ways to job hunt (the best and the worst) are considered and there are samples of excellent curricula vitae. For readers unsure of what they want, there’s an exercise which helps define a vision and map the many options. Parachute 2006 gives the top ten tips of successful interviews plus the six secrets of salary negotiation.

Parachute 2006 gives advice on working while roaming the globe. If you want to start your own business, that’s covered too.

This book also explains how one sentence can change your life. And this could be the sentence: Parachute is about taking chances, gaining confidence, and making changes in your career and life.

Make sure you’ve read it before your next interview, so that itís you being told: You’re hired.
