This book is for and about the millions of people who are "between jobs". It is about the transition from a job-for-life, with career development support, and a company-sponsored pension to downsized, outsourced, and replaced. It is about managing a career creatively in an environment where no job is presumed to be permanent. The author explains the trends that have converged since the heyday of the white-collar worker after World War II to create an environment of job instability and anxiety, and then presents specific tactics and techniques that readers can use to stay one step ahead in their careers, whether they are senior executives or just starting out. Much more than a manual for job searches and career-building strategies, "Are There Any Good Jobs Left?" shows readers how to interpret trends, assess such temptations as leaving the corporate rat race for the entrepreneurial life, and consider the ethics of constant networking. In addition, the author explores the dynamics of the increasingly diverse workforce, and the prospects for men, women, and minorities as they all vie for the most attractive positions. Featuring an annotated list of books and web sites, this book is not so much an indictment of corporate disloyalty as an explanation of the phenomenon and a guidebook for anyone faced with job transition, change, or growth in today's turbulent environment.
