"The CQ Press Career Guide for Public Sector Students is a powerful introduction to the job market for undergraduate and graduate students looking to take that important first step into the public sector. With a focus on setting personal goals and maximizing transferable skills, author Michelle C. Pautz guides students through recommended curriculum choices, coaches them with useful tips on how to build up their career skills, advises on supplemental opportunities outside the classroom, and humanizes the options in the public sector through real-life success stories from students. With a conversational tone and multiple content formats used throughout, this guide will help students not only explore career possibilities, but also relate what they are learning in the classroom today to opportunities in the future."-- Provided by publisher.
