Making lemonade from lemons,
By Terry Pile "Career Advisors" (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Make Job Loss Work for You: Get Over It and Get Your Career Back on Track (Paperback)
Much of this book offers the typical job search information, but what is valuable is the advice for overcoming the emotional side of losing a job. Chapters 1-4 tackle the reactions to job loss and how to deal with them including shame, depression and lack of self-confidence. The authors also offer valuable advice for discussing your job loss in an interview as well as other difficult questions.
