Mastering the Job Search Process in Recreation and Leisure Services

Craig Ross · 2011
70/100
👍 Worth It

If you're heading into recreation or parks work, this is about as tailored as career advice gets — built on research with over a thousand actual practitioners in the field and written by someone who's chaired dozens of hiring committees himself. It won't help anyone outside that niche, but for its intended reader, it's a solid, grounded resource.
