I have been in contract positions and will start my first full-time (with benefits) job soon. I was able to read this book in one sitting but it did not provide me information that I did not know already. This book is great for teens and YA that are going to start their first job and they are taking it seriously. Overall, it gives good tips, the information is concise and to the point, and I did love the case studies used for examples.
