After the COVID-19 pandemic hit, many people were stuck with no employment for months. Now that things are starting to go back to normal, jobs are easier to find. However, because many workers have gaps in their employment history, getting a new job is difficult. Do you want to polish your skills and improve your resume for potential employers? What should it include? How do I know if a job is the right one for me? Paul Dionne helps readers figure out the answers to these questions in 33 Tools To Remake Your Career. Just as the book title implies, the book contains advice on how to help readers improve their job and what to do if it is time for a change.

The personality tool section was my favorite part of this book. I remember taking a personality test before attending college and using the scores from this test to determine my career goals. Paul tells his readers that they should not plan their career goals around one personality test; instead, they should take multiple different ones to see what strengths exist. Links are provided in the text for readers to determine their personalities. These tests are a good way for readers to plan out what types of jobs they want to look into more.

I also enjoyed the section about job titles. After reading this tool, I had to take a hard look at my resume and change some of the titles I used. For example, recruiters get turned off when they see that someone identifies themselves as CEO of their startup company. According to the author, this is not the applicant’s fault; recruiters don’t understand the hard work required to operate a company as the only employee. He provides alternative titles for readers to use that are more likely to get attention. Reading about the recruiting process to find employees was an eye-opener because I did not know this process was so analytical.

There is nothing that I disliked in this book. The advice about obtaining new certifications, using social media sites to network with others, investigating how economic factors play a role in job availability, and more is in small chapters for easier understanding and application. Steps that explain how to apply these tools during a job search are at the end of each section. Some of these tools contain photographs to help the reader use the advice in the book. I had no confusion or difficulty while practicing any of the suggestions provided in this title.

Nine errors were present in the book; I almost had to remove a star because of them. As such, another round of editing should correct these errors. Based on my explanations above, 33 Tools To Remake Your Career receives four out of four stars. I recommend this book to middle-aged readers trying to get back into the workforce. Young adults who lost their jobs during the COVID-19 pandemic may find this book helpful too.
