Career guides.... It's never too early (or too late)...

Looking for a good job?
Career planning most likely occupies a good part of your time, energy, and efforts as a student at USFSP - directly or indirectly.

"Vault Guide" and "WetFeet" are two important career planning resources that may help in the process. Both of these companies offer a variety of job resources and services - for both job seekers and recruiters - and include the basics for company, career, and industry research.

Many of the Vault Guide and WetFeet publications are available as e-books through the USFSP library. From the library catalog, type in either vault guide or wetfeet to see a list of the titles available. Follow the links to open and read an e-book (from NetLibrary - view only, no downloading).

A sample of the 13 or so Vault Guide titles in our e-collection include: "Vault.com career guide to marketing & brand management"; "Vault.com guide to the case interview"; and "Vault guide to the top 50 finance employers". We also have the "Vault guide to top internships" in print format in the library in the first floor reference collection (LC1072.I58V38 2005 ). Also try the Vault.com web site to see the full range of their resources and services, including message boards, salary information, and sample resumes and cover letters (some available for free.)

A sample of the 40 or so Wetfeet titles in our e-collection include: "The WetFeet insider guide to industries and careers for undergrads"; "The WetFeet insider guide to careers in marketing and market research"; and "The WetFeet insider guide to careers in human resources". Take a look at their web site to see some of the other resources they offer both job seekers and employers (much is for subscribers$).

To find other books available in the USFSP collection, try searching the catalog using some of the following subject headings: vocational guidance; career development; job hunting....

And don't forget the Career Center on campus.... or ask a librarian...
