The Career Guide to the Horse Industry

Summary: Disappointing
Review: It's a shame that Amazon.com doesn't have the "look inside" feature for this book, because it doesn't just "[include] tips on writing resumes, filling out applications, interviewing, and keeping a job," over ONE HUNDRED PAGES are devoted to this! And it's not even horse-industry-specific information, it's the same stuff you could find in any job-seeking guidebook. There are 71 horse-related careers that get a single-page outline each. Might be useful for someone who has absolutely no knowledge of the horse industry, or someone looking for a general job-hunting guide with a little horsey info at the end, but that's about it.

Review: It's too bad amazon doesn't have the "look inside" option for this book. It doesn't just "[include] tips on writing resumes, filling out applications, interviewing, and keeping a job," over ONE HUNDRED PAGES are devoted to this. And it's all very generic info that you could find in any "how to get and keep a job" book. Then there are 70 pages outlining 71 careers - that's right, ONE PAGE devoted to each. Could be useful if you really have no idea what's involved in working with horses, but otherwise not worth the $.
