    “Discover What You’re Best At” by Linda Gail.

    I found this book when I was out of work due to an injury. You can do the self tests in half a day, and the jobs they suggest go from entry level to college graduate. When you can get up on a rainy Monday morning and feel okay about going to work you’ve solved most of life’s problems.

        There are six self tests in the book. Things like math, mechanical problems, leadership, etc.

        A product demonstrator, a nurse, and a hair stylist all need good dexterity and good people skills. Three totally different jobs with similar skill sets.
