Old DOT [Dict of Occupational Titles] looks out of dark ages

Far superior to old DOT. This ONE book gives info concisely yet on far more Job Titles and has cross references to legacy Dept. of Labor publications. I eagerly jumped on the internet to follow up some leads. When JIST gets all the info up on their website it will be a fantastic resource. I hope they make full book available to bonifide buyers online - cut & paste beats typing! The 4 star rating was based by overly broad Job Titles seeming to inflate the SVP [Specific Vocational Preparation] and GED [General Educational Developement] requirements. This could skew the perception that the goal is less achievable and cost(s) exorbitant. We specifically researched 31514 Vocational & Education Counselor DOT 187.167-198 Veterans Contact Representative. This gave SVP 7 [>2 years and </=4 years] and GED R5 M4 L5. This was further exacerbated when using JIST's also new "Enhanced Occupational Outlook Handbook" the SVP jumped to 4 to 10 years. Another skew factor was the GED L5 & L6 language levels have the same requirements leaving interpretation ambiguous. Vast improvement overall. This book [and CD-ROM / full text online-Please] are an Absolute Must Have for ALL job counselors and reference facilities!!
