Extraordinary Jobs: New Books at the Career Resource Library

View all posts for July 2009

If you are looking to find more information on perhaps unique or unusual jobs, you might want to consider perusing one of the new books at the Career Resource Library: Extraordinary Jobs in Government, Adventurers, Entertainment, Health & Science, Media, and Creative People which are part of a 12 book series.

While you might think you know the types of careers listed in the Government or Health & Sciences series, were you aware you could be a laughter therapist, venom researcher, presidential speechwriter, or staff assistant to the First Lady? If you see yourself as more of an artistic or imaginative person you could read more about becoming a movie critic, crossword puzzle creator, celebrity photographer, logo designer, or costume designer in the Entertainment, Media, or Creative People books.

If none of these careers sound thrilling enough for you, perhaps you would be more interested in becoming a bounty hunter or private investigator. Read more about these extraordinary job titles:

Extraordinary Jobs in Adventurers found in the CRL Liberal Arts section.

For more information on careers, visit the Career Resource Library website or check out some of our Career Guides.
