Guide Review - Best Entry-Level Jobs

Co-autors Tom Meltzer and Ron Lieber recently teamed up with The Princeton Review to create a guide for people who are seeking entry-level employment. This handy guide, titled Best Entry-Level Jobs, offers an inside look at some of the best job opportunities in the country.

In this updated 2007 edition, you’ll find profiles for more than 100 for-profit and nonprofit companies. Each profile includes:
  • A company description
  • Entry-level position titles
  • Company contact information
  • Average starting salaries
  • Company perks and benefits info
  • Tips for getting hired
  • Job training structure
  • Opportunities for advancement
In addition to comprehensive profiles for exciting companies, such as Google, Bank One, The New York Times, Proctor and Gamble, and State Farm, readers can also benefit from an entire section on networking, interviewing, resume/cover letter writing.

I highly recommend Best Entry-Level Jobs to anyone who wants to launch a new career. This book provides honest company assessments and valuable resources for entry-level workers in a variety of fields and industries.
