Features: College and graduate students worldwide face the same challenge: how to find a satisfying job right after graduation. If you haven’t learned how to write your own resume or how to handle job interviews, don’t expect to land a desirable position after leaving school. And once you receive an offer, adapting to a new workplace and getting along with unfamiliar faces there will soon become your new challenge, and the difficulties will be much greater than you imagine. For years, you’ve believed you always listened attentively to others, only to find that at your new workplace, colleagues say you neither listen nor understand what they’re saying. For years, you’ve thought of yourself as a skilled writer, only to have your boss tell you, “Good grief, you can’t even write a memo properly!” You never imagined that a new career position requires you to act and speak like a mature professional at all times. Challenges and problems follow one after another—you not only struggle to play the role of a professional but also find your personal life in disarray, unsure how to balance everything! From the day you start your job until the day you leave, you may experience all sorts of emotional ups and downs and setbacks in your office. These issues, along with many other unpredictable challenges, are essentially about career positioning and relationship management. The two authors of this book have taught at prestigious universities in both China and the U.S. and have long provided career positioning and relationship management consultations for professionals in both countries, possessing extensive theoretical knowledge and practical experience. This book will help you understand and address various career positioning challenges and teach you step by step how to master the keys to opening doors for effective relationship management. This book will only be published in English and will first be introduced to Chinese college and graduate students before being published in the U.S. There’s no doubt that this book will become an international bestseller.
