Skills, Education, and the Workforce Phd R Eric Landrum

From a group of students in the trenches of career preparation, this guide to beginning a career lays out the tools you need to be successful in today's workforce. Each chapter explores how one's personal skills relate to career success, as researched by honors students at Boise State University.



This valuable information can help any upcoming or new graduate make the right first step in his or her career. The modern workforce has changed drastically over the past few decades, and entering it can be a frustrating experience. But by understanding the skills you already have, as well as how to present them, you can embark on a successful path.



Mirroring the honors course's goals, this handbook covers important topics that will prime you for success, such as

how skills and the workforce have changed over time, what skills are required in the economy students face today, the best way to quantify your skills, and how to tell your own story.

This in-depth resource is the product of many hours of research and study, and its insights come from students with a very personal viewpoint. Their unique perspective makes this the most relevant student guide available.
