The co-founders of the hugely successful Who What Wear empire share their best career advice for smart, stylish, self-starting women of all professional levels.

In The Career Code, the third book in the smash-hit Who What Wear series, fashion and digital entrepreneurs Katherine Power and Hillary Kerr bring you the Everygirl’s guide for creating your own professional success, on every level, flawlessly. The book is filled with insightful, pragmatic “career codes” to follow, as well as all of the practical, how-to advice they’ve learned while building their company from zero employees in 2006, to the thriving, multibrand, multiplatform, multi-million dollar company it is today.

In this approachable, authoritative, and inspirational book, you will find the most useful and accessible tips and tricks to strategically build your career into exactly what you want it to be, from negotiating your salary to avoiding the biggest mistake most people make when they quit. Chapters include advice on résumé building, dressing for the job you want, and how to effectively communicate at work—even with the most difficult colleagues—all done with the Who What Wear girls’ practical and polished signature style. It gives you total insight into how you can excel at work in every arena, whether you’re just starting your very first job, contemplating switching fields, or finally a boss who’s building her own team. The Career Code also includes over 20 of Hillary and Katherine’s best “life hacks” to ensure your out-of-office life runs just as smoothly as your career.

Take your ambition to the next level and give your career the stylish edge it deserves. This is the must-have handbook for every woman at every stage of her career, no matter where she sits in the boardroom.

Review

"No one is more equipped than Hillary and Katherine to make your next chapter as a working woman your strongest yet. With their trademark wisdom—chic yet accessible—they make the daunting prospect of living your dream life just a little bit easier."

(Lena Dunham)

"Katherine and Hillary continue to blow me away with everything they create, and The Career Code is no exception. This thoughtful collection of professional best practices is a must-read for anyone who is starting out in their career. I love the 'Hire Well. Delegate Better.' section. This is a lesson I focus on personally at Glossier and encourage our leadership team to do the same. Katherine and Hillary really nailed it here, so take a quiet Sunday to read this book and be inspired to get your act together."

(Emily Weiss, Founder & CEO, Glossier)

"The Career Code is a must read for anyone focused on their career. Page after page is filled with smart, practical, and useful information. I wish this book was around when I began working! Thank you Hillary and Katherine for sharing all your inside info; you will help make the workplace kinder and gentler, and will make sure people keep their sense of humor. When someone finishes reading The Career Code they will feel like they can do anything!"

(Susan Feldman, Co-Founder & Chief Merchandising Officer, One Kings Lane)

"This is the bible for how to get started in your career. Period. There is a reason these two incredible women have built more than one empire. Read it and listen people."

(Rebecca Minkoff)

"Run, don't walk, to get your copy of this amazing career guide."

It's like you're getting to pick the brain of two smart, wildly successful women who really know the industry, and who can talk you through everything from how to find your dream job to building a business of your own. Absolutely read up."

(Yael Aflalo, Founder & CEO of Reformation)

Not really my career code!

June 7, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Really okay stuff! I am a regular member of whowhatwear website that showcases the fashion trends and DIYs.I love the website so much so when they recommended the book, i instantly pre ordered. I was kinda looking forward to knowing the writer since i have been surfing their website since quite some time. But, the content is really superficial and very predictable. I mean, we all know the dress code and how to behave at work. Dont buy the book unless this is your first time to working in real world!!!!!

It was very baseline advice. There was nothing innovative or game changing about it. Advice like use spell check and do your research is obvious to the average working person. I was disappointed and not worth the price.

career bible for the chic and successful woman

March 28, 2017

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

I just received this book a few days ago and after poring over the contents I'm left wanting more! I can't say how valuable this book is for me. I went to school for fashion design and I'm about to move to LA to find my first design job and I feel like this book was written for me. I learned so much information from how to best use LinkedIn to how to present yourself at your yearly review. This will be like a bible to me for the next few years for sure.

Full of common sense "tips"

May 28, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I thought I'd pay attention to the five 5 star reviews (and the accolades from people in the industry) rather than the lone 1 star review, but I should've done the opposite. This book is full of completely obvious "tips" such as bring your resume to a job interview, and the importance of writing a cover letter.

I guess maybe if you're an undergrad who somehow wasn't already taught this stuff you'd find the book really helpful, but for anyone who's passed that stage in their lives/ careers this book is pretty much useless.

Make sure you're in that target market before buying this book. Needless to say I returned my copy.

Useful for the younger crowd

September 28, 2017

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

I was hoping this book would be more insightful for a mid twenty something in her career, however this book is aimed for more of a 18-21 year old with basic resume and jobs hints for the work place which you already accumulate way before 25.

4 stares for being relative to current times, for women and simplicity and directness achieving goals for each chapter.

Basic general knowledge. Literally stuff you could've googled. I'm a multimedia journalist and many of the topics they touched on applied to sales and fashion like careers. Touché for making a general a** book for money.

A waste of money. It seems like more time was spent on the layout and design than the advice. It is nothing more than the obvious.

Disappointing

Not as good as I had hoped. Like a lot of people here are saying, it's really geared towards total work force newbies. Tips and advice were pretty basic.Read more
