The Back Door Guide to Short-Term Job Adventures: Internships, Summer Jobs, Seasonal Work, Volunteer Vacations, and Transitions Abroad by Michael Landes (2005)Do you know a recent graduate looking for experience? Maybe there is a library customer who is trying to make a career change but needs to gain certain skills to improve his/her resume. The Back Door Guide to Short-Term Job Adventures: Internships, Summer Jobs, Seasonal Work, Volunteer Vacations, and Transitions Abroad offers a number of possible venues as tools for their job search.
Michael Landes starts with a number of life-planning exercises and leads into a variety of sections, which include real-life stories, websites, and associations for further exploration. Each section outlines whether the experience offers a stipend or if it’s a volunteer opportunity. Some programs are geared specifically for college students or recent graduates, while others are open for anyone over eighteen. The reviews also offer contact information and how to apply for participation. Short-term work may be the tool you need to build the skills, experience, and connections with people to get to the next phase in the job search.
