What Color is Your Parachute? : A Practical Manual for Job-Hunters and Career Changers

This book is my all-time favorite job hunting guide. I first bought it sometime prior to 2004.  The book is updated every year and has been in continuous production since 1970.  The latest edition is 2020, which was published in late 2019.  There is also a companion What Color is Your Parachute Workbook.
