It analyzes both textbooks published abroad for ESP learners as well as those created by the Romanian specialists in the field and evaluates the degree to which they meet the learners’ needs and expectations. The aim of this paper is to provide several suggestions for improving the quality of these resources, as well as to propose some ways of combining the available resources in order to make them really useful instruments for developing the language skills that the ESP learners need in order to face the challenges of the labor market.
