Now in its second edition, this no-nonsense workbook points readers in the right direction. With a range of IQ tests and searching questionnaires, it helps job seekers to work out what area of work they should be focusing on, by identifying their interests and strengths and scientifically interpreting which jobs they are suited to. Compiled by a psychometric testing specialist and bestselling author this book has three main aims: careers guidance, preparation and personal performance improvement.
