In a strong economy, companies spend money on career development so employees can chart their paths through the organization. In a down economy, though, many companies slash jobs, downsize career assistance programs, and eliminate outplacement efforts. This practical guide encourages readers to take control of their careers—in effect, to become their own career coaches. Unlike other publications on the topic, this book covers the entire process in detail, from self-assessment, resume writing, and job market research to interviewing and negotiating. At each step, It's Your Career—Take Control! provides practical exercises, tips, sample forms, and case studies.
