About this book
Plot out your path to a rewarding work life.
The world of work is changing with head-spinning speed. Now more than ever, you need to find your footing—and design your personalized road map to job satisfaction and career success.
Career Mapping offers a template for figuring out who you are and what you can offer to the work world. Inspired by the author's own experiences as a college recruiter and executive recruiter, as well as a woman who broke through to the executive ranks in two male-dominated industries, it addresses an array of situations, from just starting out to navigating the corporate maze to launching a new business or anticipating retirement. It offers case studies of people at different stages of their careers, and provides a step-by-step process for customizing your own job hunting and career management strategies.
With thought-provoking questions; candid revelations from her own inspiring journey; and vital advice from Ginny Clarke's experiences interviewing, recruiting, and coaching thousands of professionals and executives, Career Mapping explains the oft-misunderstood executive search process, demystifies how you can make yourself a more desirable job candidate, and reveals how to avoid the devastating pitfalls that have derailed careers.
