The Ethical Careers Guide by Paul Allen

This guide is aimed at anyone who wants to do something meaningful with their working life. As everyone’s idea of a meaningful job is different, it is not prescriptive or a definitive manual. Instead, it will inform and inspire readers – helping them to identify the best step(s) towards a more satisfying work life. There are two primary audiences: job seekers (school leavers and graduates) and career switchers. Though they may have different experiences, there are crossovers between these groups – e.g. many people already in work will feel like they are starting again when they look to switch careers. 'If you're looking to find a career that makes a difference - and work you really love - this book will show you how.'
Lucy Siegle, Ethical Correspondent, The Guardian and BBC The One Show. 'Can individuals turn a volunteering activity into a job which makes a real difference to the lives of vulnerable individuals or give support to an issue that you feel passionate about? The answer is yes and this book addresses the crucial issues to plan and give serious consideration to applying for a job role that meet personal criteria for helping others.'
