505 0 Part one. Your strengths. The explorers -- It's 480 B.C.--
You have an ax -- You can start anywhere -- Part two. Your
opportunities. My job didn't exist a year ago -- The
problem solvers -- Frozen pipes, thawed minds -- Ruling
the world -- Part three. Your allies. Employers that get
it -- Your alumni connection -- What your campus can do --
Prepared forever -- Part four. Your tool kit. Telling your
story -- Getting paid properly.
520 George Anders explains the remarkable power of a liberal
arts education, and the ways it can open the door to
cutting-edge jobs. The curiosity, creativity, and empathy
that are hallmarks of a liberal arts education aren't
unruly traits that must be reined in. You can be yourself,
as an English major, and thrive in sales. You can segue
from anthropology into the booming new field of user
research; from classics into management consulting, and
from philosophy into high-stakes investing. At any stage
of your career, you can bring a humanist's grace to our
rapidly evolving high-tech future. In this book, you will
learn why resume-writing is fading in importance and why
"telling your story" is taking its place. You will learn
how to create jobs that don't exist yet, and to translate
your campus achievements into a new style of expression
that will make employers' eyes light up.
