If you’re a parent, you know . . . that the best advice your graduate will get could be your ideas and your experience expressed in someone else’s words.

If you’ve had experience beyond school, you know . . . that those share what they learned about where you’re ready to go can make the world a whole lot easier to navigate.

Back in March, Drew McLellan invited many people to share what they know about how to get that first job. Here’s what he said,

When you have a couple minutes, would you consider swinging by my place and adding your 2-cents? I don’t know about you — but I still remember how nervous I was and how desperately I wanted someone to give me a chance. I’d like to create a tool so the next generation can get over those nerves a little faster/easier with our help.

Drew’s request was generous. He was repaid in kind. The eBook that he made is complete and available now in two forms for you and your graduate.
