Career changers take note
This book was informative and interesting. Anyone that lives in the south; be that southeast or the deep south; does not have to worry about this being out of date. Y'all know what I mean!
Regardless; this is a good book even for a northerner or westerner since it covers so many different fields. I found it wonderful as a career changer and as an eye opener for someone freshly laid off. It would also be useful to a young person trying to decide what career may be most interesting to them; because it covers a whole lot more than what does it pay; or perhaps someone in a small start up considering hiring staff members.

Is everyone a CEO or celebrity?
I found this book to be plagued with salaries and jobs for the minority of job seekers. If you are planning on becoming a dancer or a CEO, this book is for you. Otherwise, don't waste your time. All you will be doing is extrapolating through inference what the salary of the job position you are seeking is.

Salaries Not Current
If you are purchasing this book to use as a current salary reference, you will be disappointed. Many of the tables show salaries from 1997, some as old as 1995, and many have not been updated since the last edition. Similar Products
