Great guide!

SO entertaining while also informative. Jamie Fedorko does a terrific job giving us all the dirt on the ins and outs of an internship. Also, LOVED the interview chapter with Alexis Feldman. Helpful, witty and cleaver. Highly recommend it to all!

An employer says, "You need this book!"

From my perspective as an employer, any individual who follows the wise and entertaining guidance in this book will be an irresistable choice for any internship or paid position. I only wish I had this book when I was starting my own career. Brilliant, funny, and vital if you want a career...any career. --Michael Levin
