Cupertino, CA (PRWeb.com) February 2, 2010 – The statistics are frightening. The National Association of Colleges and Employers' (NACE) 2009 Student Survey shows that just 19.7 percent of 2009 graduates who applied for a job actually have one, and 2010 hiring is expected to remain flat. Heather R. Huhman, an experienced hiring manager and career expert, knows most hiring managers expect young professionals to be hunting experts—but they're not.
Millennials—those individuals born between 1977 and 1997 and also known as Generation Y—expect their colleges to aid in their job search but often find this doesn't happen. Much of the advice they do receive comes from individuals they feel are out-of-touch with their generation. In her new book, "#ENTRYLEVELtweet: Taking Your Career from Classroom to Cubicle," Huhman offers practical and insightful advice from personal experiences that recent graduates can use to their advantage.
'#ENTRYLEVELtweet' provides 140 tweet-style tips on how to find, land, and succeed in an entry-level career. Specifically, the book offers advice on:
- Identifying your "unique you"
- Developing your "career tools"
- Networking as a job search tool
- Applying for internships and entry-level jobs
- Accepting and rejecting offers
- Succeeding on the job
People are already praising the book for its practical, easy-to-follow steps. '#ENTRYLEVELtweet' breaks the complexities of job search into practical, bite-sized career commandments that are spot on," personal marketing strategist, writer and coach Kristi Daeda said.
