Job Moves: 9 Steps for Making Progress in Your Career
Ethan Bernstein, Michael B. Horn, and Bob Moesta
Harper Business, 304 pp., $32

Job Moves adopts the jobs-to-be-done product design theory, which states that consumers don't simply purchase products; they recruit them to do specific jobs that solve a problem. The authors apply that model to the global job market to examine posted vacancies as positions companies hire to help individuals progress in their lives and careers. The book posits that the power to advance career paths lies within job seekers, not hiring managers. Job Moves gives readers a process to identify the circumstances that drive workers to seek new opportunities and provides a blueprint for determining whether a new job will be worth the change.
