Description
After a decade of helping thousands of college students chart a path towards successful careers, Tori Randolph Terhune and Betsy A. Hays are back with a second edition of Land Your Dream Career in College full of updated strategies for today's future leaders.
Both the college landscape and the world of work have witnessed seismic shifts in the last decade, from the rapid advancement of digital technology to the global reshaping of the workplace caused by the pandemic. Now more than ever, it's essential for students to consciously shape their college experience as a road to an immediate career.
The second edition meets students at the early planning stages for college, assessing interests to find a dream career that's right for them, understanding the courses they need to take, the internships and opportunities they must seize, and the obstacles they'll encounter. Key to the new edition is a focus on defining your dream career, using the latest tools and resources to build your portfolio of knowledge and experience, and how to pivot if your dreams or realities of life change.

The college experience does not prepare students well to transition easily from campus to career. Tori Terhune and Betsy Hays' book is essential for every undergraduate. It's the toolbox. It's the user's manual. Nobody else on campus is going to assemble all this critical information in one place. I recommend this text in all my undergraduate courses with just three words: Get this book. The college experience is incomplete without the wisdom that this book has to offer.
