Rezensionen

Employability examines the challenges facing students and those already in work in the contemporary employment market. Its practical approach, interspersed with relevant theory, provides useful hints, tips and practical suggestions, making it a must-read for those who want to understand and explore a wide spectrum of employability-related questions and issues. I would recommend this book to anyone who is on the employability journey.
