On your way to joining the workforce... but will you be competitive?

If you're a college student preparing for your entrance into the workforce, you probably have plenty of folks around you eager to share about their own lessons learned and mistakes made during those first few years that they worked a 'real job.'  While you may find some of those stories to be of some help (or a source for a good laugh), you will definitely benefit from spending some time checking out the valuable information shared at Job Start 101.   A program based on a business round table that asked hundreds of employers what skills they felt graduates were missing when they started their first jobs, Job Start 101 consists of 6 video modules which provide students with tips on real world training to build critical on the job skills.  The modules are interactive, professional, and informative - so check it out:   http://www.jobstart101.org/.
