Use Christen's step-by-step exercises, along with careful planning and hard work, to launch a successful career." --Steven Roy Goodman, educational consultant and coauthor of College Admissions Together "After long nights of losing sleep and worrying about what career would both satisfy me and benefit my life in the future, I found my answer among the many informative and interactive pages of this book. It has lead me down the right track toward the profession of my dreams and taught me a lot about myself along the way." --Alison Mantell, college freshman at Montana State University

I ordered 2 books from this seller; this one was exactly as described and in good condition. The other is even better, but covered in other feedback. I would say that this seller's books are in better condition than other online used bookstores for the same price. The books were well wrapped, again better than other online used bookstores. Shipping was free which is always a plus. The books came quickly considering sometimes roads are closed due to high winds here. Very happy with purchase!
