Very interesting. Even though some things might seem so obvious, it's always nice to think about them. I wish I had read a book like this one before starting my first job. I'll definitely recommend it to my younger friends.
This is a nice compilation of things you should know and prepare for before you start your own job. Some of the pointers are quite self-explanatory and obvious, but it's nice to have a reminder now and then. The format of the book is very helpful, with the main ideas bolded. It does explore a wide range of topics that can be useful in a job like understanding your personality type as well as learning workplace strategy. I would definitely recommend to students entering their first job
