The "Occupational Outlook Handbook (OOH)" has been compiled every two years by the U.S. Department of Labor since the 1940s. This is a quality reprint with only one difference—it's much less expensive!
One reason for the "OOH's" continued popularity is that there is excellent labor market information throughout the book, plus extensive indexes.
For each job, the "OOH" discusses the nature of the work, working conditions, job outlook, training and education needed, earnings, related occupations, and additional information sources, including Web sites. The book is packed with practical, current information, and it is invaluable for anyone doing career research, writing resumes, preparing for interviews, or writing job descriptions. Additional features:
* Job descriptions are cross-referenced with the more specialized job titles in the O*NET.
* Includes interesting photos of workers on the job, plus charts and tables.
* Brief overview of trends for major industry and occupational groups.
* Organized by clusters of related jobs for easy research.
* Job opportunities forecast is based on Bureau of Labor Statistics projections through 2012.
