This book is so interesting that I can use it as a dictionary to find the “best jobs” related to my major and passion to go for. In this book, the author divides it into two parts. In the first part, the author used tables to list 175 best jobs based on U.S Department of Labor: highest pay, fastest growth, most openings and metropolitan areas with the highest percentages of the best jobs. Readers can easily search the related jobs to them by the classification the author made. In this second part, the author has all the detail information of these jobs: data elements, summary description of tasks, level of activities, skills, work environment, related knowledge and courses and so on. So readers can dig into more information in the part two to decide if they are really into these positions and if these positions truly fit for them. I personally really like this book and I found the first best job listed in this book is registered nurse, surprised!
