Wetfeet.Com's Industry Insider Guide: The Inside Scoop on the Job You Want

By Wetfeet.Com and Wetfeet

For five years, WetFeet.com has dug beneath the corporate PR rhetoric to find out what it is like to work in some of the hottest industries - from consulting and venture capital to advertising and high-tech. Now, its acclaimed industry profiles are collected in one complete volume. For each industry featured, the book provides an overview of the key jobs and major players, the lowdown on what's to love and what's to hate in the work environment, and industry-specific networking and interviewing tips. Accompanying each industry profile are two real people profiles - first person accounts from the trenches. These informants answer newcomers' most frequently asked questions: What background is required? What is a typical day like? How can I get a job like yours? A self assessment tool and resources at the end of each section helps readers decide what fields are right for them, and what their next steps should be.
