Thank you to St. Martin’s Press and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I am not a huge non-fiction/self help reader, but this book seemed interesting to me as a college student approaching graduation. Badan uses stories of her career to propel the narrative forward as she gives advice on how to navigate the professional world. Her story is incredible and I greatly admire her work ethic and tenacity throughout her career journey. While I found there was some value in this book, it felt a bit repetitive throughout. The tidbits of advice (often in callout boxes or bolded) were insightful, but it truly felt like this book could have easily been 100-150 pages shorter. Overall, I felt it was a valuable read but perhaps just not for me!
Please note: I shortened this review on Goodreads to maintain a positive tone and removed notes for the publisher!

I do not typically read self help books like Nobody Cares About Your Career, but this was one of those books where the title caught me and the fact that the author was a female CEO at what one would assume would have been a male- run organization.

I am glad I picked it up. This book was great. The author sounded like me. There was no fancy language and I felt like it made me think more about what I wanted from a job and what I wanted my contributions to be based on what was important to ME. As a woman I found this book and her words so meaningful. I loved it and will read it again. I will also make sure it is. Book I share with my kids as they enter the “real world” after college
