A must have for your high school graduate
I love this book. I met people who followed the principles and landed a job right out of college. Easy read. I bought several others for my son and friends graduating from high school so they can start their college life on track

A must-read for college students looking for real advice.
As someone who's spent over a decade in the entertainment industry, I've interviewed, worked with and learned from people from all kinds of career paths - from high school dropout CEOs to Ivy League MBAs hoping for an entry-level internship. This vast array of experiences has taught me that the bridge from college to career is not an automatic one. It's a complicated journey where preparation, connections, and tools are all important. This book lays this out in a way that any recent graduate will find as refreshingly honest as it is supportive.

I'll be honest - I don't normally read (or like) "self help" books. I don't need to spend money to hear how my life will be better if I just have a positive attitude. This is NOT that kind of book. Through personal stories, thought-provoking antidotes, and relevant advice, Betsy Hays and Tori Terhune provide tools that college students can ACTUALLY USE after college. You get the sense from reading it that they genuinely want the reader to succeed, and it's impossible not to get caught up in their enthusiasm for turning your dream job into a life-long career.

I recommend this book to anyone looking to take the first steps in their career journey.

Great Read!
This book should be in the hands of every college student!

As a returning transfer student, I already know how difficult it is to get a job, and have seen firsthand that a college degree just isn't enough anymore. Land Your Dream Career lays out the steps to take in an entertaining and easily accessible way.

Many of the skills the authors talk about in the book are extremely transferable, and not just applicable to current college students. I've even recommended this book to my sister to help with her photography business.

"Chapter 2: Design, Build, and Protect Your Brand" had the biggest impact on me. They really make you sit down and focus on who you are and what you want. I feel like the hardest thing for college students on the go is to sit down and reflect. This chapter really focuses you so you aren't just spinning your wheels.

The conclusion wraps up nicely with the "Put It All Together" chapter. This is the only part in the book that I feel drags and tends to repeat what we've already read. That being said it does include some helpful resume tips that puts everything together.

The greatest thing about reading this book is getting to know Betsy Hays and Tori Terhune. Their personal stories really show that their knowledge is from personal experience and not some stuffy business person behind a desk. This is a great read and I highly recommend it!

Review of Cute Fox Earrings - Adorable but Flawed
14 reviews between Nov 26, 2019 and Feb 21, 2023.

These fox earrings are cute but poorly made, with bent and loose posts. Some customers found them difficult to wear or had parts that fell off. Despite the flaws, they were still considered adorable and a fun surprise gift for fox lovers. However, others felt they were more like a kids craft project than proper earrings. Overall, the design was praised for its cuteness, but quality and construction issues were a common complaint.
