ABSTRACT

You are almost finished with your degree and are unsure of what you want to do next. Initially, you thought about going into consulting, but an internship convinced you that the long hours, travel, and continual “wooing” of clients were not for you. Your focus then shifted to management, but your resume's career objective (“interested in management position with opportunities to utilize my diverse talents”) has not exactly sent interviewers stampeding to your door. Should you try a different degree program? (You have often thought about becoming a counselor.) Or should you keep your part-time bartending job until a management position turns up?
