175 Best Jobs Not Behind a Desk

The collaborative work of career information specialists Michael Farr and Laurence Shatkin, "175 Best Jobs Not Behind A Desk" is part of JIST's 'Best Jobs' series. More than just a simple catalog of jobs and careers outside the usual business office, "175 Best Jobs Not Behind A Desk" is a thoroughly 'user friendly', do-it-yourself instruction manual on how to determine not only what jobs are available, but how to go about identifying and selecting the one best for you. The two step process involves first browsing the 70 best jobs lists to find possible jobs that fit your educational background and your employment requirements. Then after picking out some possibilities, go on to the second part of the book for details on earnings, growth, jobs tasks, physical activity levels, training needed, etc. "175 Best Jobs Not Behind A Desk" should be considered a mandatory addition to school counselor and job counselor professional reference shelves, as well as a necessary acquisition for trade school library and community library Jobs & Careers collections.
