Résumé:

Green at Work, initially published by Island Press in 1992, was the first source of information to help nontechnical but environmentally concerned job seekers learn about career opportunities with environmental companies or within the newly emerging "green" corporate culture. Now entirely revised and expanded, this indispensable volume again offers invaluable tools and strategies for launching a green career. Susan Cohn has expanded her scope beyond the business world to examine environmentally focused, nontechnical careers in a wide variety of fields, including communications, banking and finance, consulting, design and the arts, public policy, nonprofits, and more. Every step of the jobseeking process is covered, from identifying personal values, skills, and goals, to researching potential companies and organizations, to interviewing. This completely updated edition includes profiles of over 70 individuals illustrating how they have woven their skills, values, and passions into their work; listings of more than 400 companies with contact names, addresses, phone numbers, information on what the company does, and its environmental programs and policies; listings of over 50 organizations, publications, and other resources; and a bibliography of recommended readings.
