Book excerpt: Addressing the specific challenges and concerns of graduating college students and recent graduates, this guide helps them figure out what career path to pursue, how to find a job that is interesting and pays the bills, and what to do to maximise each job experience. Written and edited by three recent graduates with contributions from more than 100 graduates, professionals, and career advisors, this book teaches students how to be more aggressive, inventive, and persistent in looking for a job and how to succeed and gain respect once they enter the workplace. The entire career path is covered, from developing an interest in a career to being promoted, resigning, or being laid off. Specific advice includes how to network, negotiate a salary, and deal with difficult bosses.
