Summary
Child care is a field that continues to grow, as the economy forces more and more people with children to work outside the home. This guide to finding a meaningful job in child care provides the basic needs of any job seeker: how to craft a successful resume and cover letter, how to dress for an interview, and how to be the best worker you can be. It covers all of the bases, including getting safety certification, licensing, and handling tax concerns when the time comes.

School Library Journal Review
Gr 7-10-Written in a clear, straightforward style, this series assumes readers have no prior knowledge of the featured vocations. In five or six thorough chapters per volume, the authors offer overviews of various fields and the choices students entering them need to consider. The chapters continue with the steps readers can do now to prepare, and what will be expected later. Finding a job, interviewing, paperwork, and what perspective workers will learn on the job are all discussed. The main texts can sometimes look squeezed and the spacing odd. The books contain attractive, captioned color photos; headings; fairly large font; and sidebars with additional information. (c) Copyright 2013.
