Book Description
Based on 200 interviews with students ages 20 and up at colleges and technical schools across the nation, this advice book identifies the biggest worries of young people entering the adult world of work. Presented in a question-and-answer format—but interrupted from time to time by interactive exercises and personal stories from the interviewees—topics discussed include job hunting, pursuing an advanced degree, goal-setting, managing money, choosing a health care plan, defining success, and finding happiness. The conversations are summarized in capsule form with "My Eleven Must-Knows," and in the end, the book reassures its readers that they are no more uncertain than previous generations and hold the very same achievable dreams for the future.
