The Guardian Guide To Careers

The Guardian contains more advertisements for graduate jobs than all other broadsheets put together. This volume draws on the newspaper's unassailable reputation in the careers field to provide valuable guidance to finding work that has both meaning and value. The book is divided into three main sections: Discover your niche: The 'inspiration' section, which includes ten feature packages (including case studies) along the themes of wanting to work from home, working abroad, being creative, doing something that matters or starting a business; Find the facts: The 'information' section and the engine room of the book, which gives an overview of each major industry sector (entry opportunities, qualifications needed, job security and promotion prospects etc), and giving contact details and professional bodies for each. Go do it: The 'implementation' section - forty features including Guardian-style boxes on essential job-hunting knowledge.
