This is an awesome book. I listened to it as an audiobook and it has been so helpful in changing the way I think about money. I have been making active decisions to not spend on things that aren't complete necessities. I am actually feeling excited and empowered about my spending decisions for the first time in my life. Wecks is a real person with real financial struggles, not some mogul in a mansion. The steps section is especially useful. I'm looking forward to creating a monthly, look-ahead budget and paying for things with cash. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is struggling financially or has just graduated from college and is living in the "real" world now. This book provides helpful strategies for thinking healthily about money.

This was given to me a few years after graduating from college and I have to admit that it is so true! My goodness...this man must have been following me around documenting my life (yes, I had the troll doll in my cube). From how to pick a roommate to the style of roommate and what to expect from a little old lady landlord (who I happen to have, and she talks to shrubbery, but doesn't charge me the $19.99 for rent as advertised in your book). It's the perfect book to give someone who is graduating college -- or even before!

Although this period of change is intimidating to many students, Pitts-Kysers guide has brief, easy-to-read chapters that encompass everything that a woman may need to launch her career and sustain it. She has compiled personal experience, researched material and advice from other professionals to create a guide for every graduatea guide she wished she had after her graduation herself. I definitely recommend this for not only for recent graduates, but students in general. From starting the job application process to managing difficulties that may arise in a field, Pitts-Kyser highlights the highs and lows of becoming the ultimate Careeranista.

I bought this book as a gift for my son who recently graduated from college. I not only feel it offers invaluable real-world guidance for someone launching their career, but also felt The Graduate Handbook revitalized a few techniques and approaches to workplace relations that this old grizzled veteran had let lapse (or maybe needed to learn...). It hit another aspect I look for in a book of this type -- that it's a read I can digest completely on a cross-country flight.

Great book for a college student or anyone who is just starting out. I would have loved this when I moved out of my parents house. Great information.

Excellent choice for grads. Short, sweet and to the point. Sprinkled with biblical principles that are necessary for graduates of all ages. Read for yourself, then pay it forward by giving to a friend or buy them a copy.

This in is my go to book as a new grad. It fits perfect into my bag. It's not too big. It has enough info that makes sense when I have to look something up so I can explain it to the patient. I also has labs and other info in it that is very helpful.

This book is perfect for recent female college grads (and even those of us a few years older) who are doing what seems like all the right things, but aren't finding their groove and happiness.  Steph generously and vulnerably shares her story which is riveting, and invites readers in to do personal reflection at various points (very useful).  Her straight-forward language and honest approach keeps you engaged and invites you take an honest look at what's happening in your life.  I especially like the model she presents in Chapter 4, called "The Balance Circle".  The circle has 4 categories: Relationships, Growth, Health & Productivity - and within those categories, sub-characteristics.  What a great tool!  This is super helpful in doing a self-inventory to identify what might be out of balance or where energy should be placed.
So, if you're not sure why you haven't found your mojo, this is the book for you. It's clear that this author is dedicated to helping bright young women succeed in this world, on their own terms.

I purchased this book because I am currently precepting a new graduate nurse, and I remember what it was like to be a new graduate nurse and I wanted to make the transition to professional nursing as easy as possible for her. This book is quick, to the point, and hits on many of the key topics that would have made me feel better when I started my career. Ms. Mazzella definitely captures the feelings you have when you are a new graduate nurse and I think this is a must read for all new graduate nurses, and nurses training new grads.

This little book is a crockful of worthwhile advice.  It is short, well written and to the point with pratical advice, stories and worksheets. It can be read in one sitting.  Great gift for a college graduate.  Also, great reminders and reinforcements for the "not so" young adults.  If you missed the early window to develop sound money management and wealthy habits, it is never too late!

I used this a few times this past graduation season, and the grads I gave it to were over-the-moon. They loved the versatility of being able to shop at Amazon, and they loved the instant delivery of Facebook. I would hesitate sending something this way to someone who is not a big social media buff, or who is not computer savvy, but those folks are certainly in the minority. Great option for a gift!

This book is great and helps me manage my money so much better. I bought it for myself and my sister to read. Great book for new college graduate or anyone in highschool to help them get a running start financially.

Absolutely the perfect gift for a recent college graduate.  I find in this age of technology where most people are focused on their electronic devices, people are forgetting basic manners.  Rudeness has become the acceptable norm - for which there is no excuse.  Takes very small effort to be kind and adopt basic universal practices that don't offend others and show respect.  I was never offered a job until after having lunch with my future supervisor and the leadership team.  And, I did the same with potential employees - much can be understand about the nature of an individuals based upon their manners.  Good etiquette is good manners and sign of respect for others.

I bought this for my nephew who recently graduated from college. He said he read some of it already and has gotten some good ideas for job searching strategies. I read the book way back in 1989 when I graduated from college and it helped me as well. I highly recommend it.
