Why you should read Get the Best from a Career Break
Many employees fantasize about taking off a few months – or longer – to live in a foreign country, return to school, have a baby or start a business. The motivation is even stronger when things aren’t going well at work and you feel like turning your back on the daily rat race. But you have a lot to consider before making such a serious decision. This tidy little paperback, one in a series of “Steps to Success” books from London-based Bloomsbury Publishing, covers the major areas of concern affecting anyone contemplating a career break. The book will help you decide whether you’re making the right choice, if you can afford it and how to ease back into the workforce when your break is over. getAbstract believes it’s a small book that packs a big punch.
