World of Work
 

Most people go to college so they can eventually get a higher-paying and satisfying career. But to get to that point, most students need to work at least in the summers if not year-round. These jobs are important for the combination of money, experience, work ethic, and relationships they provide. When you graduate, however, you’re ready for a career—not a job. You'll need to start networking, interviewing, and considering employment offers. And you'll need to start thinking about those “adult” issues like life insurance and taxes.

The world of work you encounter, both part-time jobs and careers, holds many challenges and rewards. By being prepared, you can be sure to succeed.
