About this book

Follow in the footsteps of women who have the jobs of your dreams. Find out what you really want to know about career choices: What will I do every day? Will I wear Prada or Old Navy? Power lunch or bag lunch? What kind of education do I need? This book contains "day in the life" profiles, sidebars, lists, and helpful tips to get you started right away on finding the career that's right for you. Words of wisdom from women in the workforce, including: a television executive producer, who thinks her job is like running a small country; a magazine editor-in-chief, who compares her life to both a chess game and the prom; and Senator Barbara Boxer, who says that if you're passionate about an issue, you can turn it into a career. Browse through the profiles, or use the Career Chooser to narrow your search.--From publisher description.
