Ten Speed Press Releases WHAT COLOR IS YOUR PARACHUTE?

Today, Ten Speed Press announced the release of What Color Is Your Parachute? Job-Hunter's Workbook Tablet Edition, a digital version of the core self-inventory exercise that has made What Color Is Your Parachute? by Richard N. Bolles, a household name. This job-search preparation guide (based on the Flower Diagram in his best-selling book) provides job seekers with a powerful self-assessment tool to identify viable job skills and develop highly individualized self-marketing strategies.
