While I like that information, three solid chapters on succeeding at work and finding a mentor are what keep this title in my lineup. Life After College is not an in-depth strategy book, but an overview of the main areas competing for a 20-somethings attention while launching into adulthood. Abundant stories and examples make it a quick and useful read. * Pioneer Press *Betsy Hays and Tori Terhune have penned the essential compendium for post-college life. It is as prescriptive as living with Dr. Phil without the video. This food for thought tome is a real recipe for mastering the day to day grind of building a five star career that will keep the graduate professionally prepared and personally fulfilled. -- Gerard Francis Corbett, Chair and CEO, Redphlag LLC; past Chair and CEO, Public Relations Society of AmericaTheyve done it again!
