Synopsis
A Parisian clerk seeks spiritual contentment in this small, dark, mordantly comic masterpiece of everyday pessimism., Bored with your job?  Frustrated at work? Need a career change but don't know what? Perhaps you've watched as colleagues have successfully fast-tracked or reinvented their careers and wished you could do the same. If you're feeling dissatisfied or stuck career-wise, then this book is radically going to change your prospects! How? You need your own one-to-one consultation with an inspiring careers coach and that's what you'll find inside. This book will give you the tools to match your experience and skills to the exciting new career you dream of - and help you take the practical steps to make your career aspirations a reality. Career Coach shows you how to take back control over your career. Using the latest career management techniques you'll develop your own personal step-by-step action plan to achieving your career goals. This practical workbook takes you through a full career analysis in the same way as working with a real life specialist career coach.  Follow the programme and complete the insightful quizzes and questionnaires to help you pinpoint your personal strengths and skills. It will show you how to explore your options, make smart decisions and then successfully implement your career plan. Written by the UK's leading career management expert, Corinne Mills, you can be sure you're getting the best advice from someone who knows the job market inside out. Motivating and inspiring, Career Coach shows you how to create the career you want., Downstream , the shortest and most autobiographical of Huysmans' novels, is the perfect example of what the French naturalists wanted a novel to be. This dark and mordantly comic masterpiece of everyday pessimism about a Parisian clerk seeking spiritual contentment is the perfect introduction to the pleasures of Joris Karl Huysmans (1848-1907), whose exquisite style is ironically the most perfect remedy for any reader's taedium vitae .
