It is not about resumes and cover letters or encouragement to do stereotypical 'job networking' which too often is a waste of time, or worse. This is a workbook for college students and young professionals (and possibly some not so young) that provides 8 specific steps to find paid work you would enjoy doing even if you were not paid to do it! MAK calls this finding 'Career Treasure. A Guide to Finding Career Treasure explains HOW to create the work future you truly want rather than being limited to what's printed on the menu. If your life and education have taught you a lot, but maybe not nearly as much about 'how' to put your interests and education to work, this 8 section/80 page workbook may quickly prove very valuable to you. This workbook provides a straight-forward approach with explanations, exercises and activities to help you discover your very best work opportunities - which almost never hang-out in plain sight. ------ Praise for "A Guide to Finding Career Treasure" "A true shift in how to find opportunities and create your ideal career in the real world." - Josh F., used his interest in biology and genetics to create his dream job in the field of nutraceuticals "This incredibly valuable book opened my eyes to new possibilities - instead of looking for job openings, I now understand how to create my own job." - Gabriella T., psychology major with an interest in economics hired at Oregon Health Sciences University "FCT got me to step out of my comfort zone and challenged me to create the future I wanted." - Scott O., interest in influencing work-life balance in Japan led to getting a newly-created, international job at KEEN footwear "Using FCT's approach, I was able to find a role I'm passionate about and get paid for it!" - Ariel G., east Asian studies and anthropology now working in global merchandising for Nike
