You Majored in What?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\nPublisher’s description: “In You Majored In What?<\/em>, nationally known career counselor Dr. Katharine Brooks dispels the myths and the old-fashioned thinking that can make your transition to the “real world” so daunting and chaotic. Developed from more than twenty years of teaching and guiding students to successful careers, her Wise Wanderings career coaching system helps you mine your academic and life experiences for career gold through creative yet practical techniques including visual mapping, storytelling, and experimenting. Thanks to the Wise Wanderings system, you can forget what you’ve been told about the job search. You don’t have to know where you’ll be in ten years. You don’t have to have picked the perfect major. The job-finding process doesn’t have to be one more burden on your already overburdened schedule. All you have to do is pay attention. Embrace the chaos. Think. Create maps. Construct small experiments. Celebrate your education. Consider possible lives. Tell stories. And start wandering. Wisely, of course. You’ll be amazed at what’s waiting out there for you.”<\/p>\nLike any big project you do in college, gathering research materials is a great place to start. Feeling overwhelmed by the entire process? Check in with\u00a0a career advisor\u00a0to help you gain some perspective and get started on your professional job search. <\/em><\/p>\n\u00a9 2010 Career and Employment Services, University of Puget Sound<\/p>\n
