From Tuition To Promotion: Uncle Mike's Guide for the Recent Graduate (and a Refresher for the Rest of Us)

You're Hired. Now What? What's it like to sit in a cube from 9 to 5? How should you interact with your boss? What kind of work assignments will be best for you? How can you make the biggest impact? How will you make it through the world's most boring meeting? What do you need to do to get that promotion and raise? These questions (and many more) are ones Mike had when he started his career as a civil engineer - the same kind of questions his students at the University of Minnesota have. Your professors don't talk about these issues and your boss probably won't either. That's where this book comes in, as a guide for not only surviving but thriving in the first three years of your new career. It's honest advice that your boss may not want you to hear, because sometimes the company's interests won't line up with your interests. Let Uncle Mike be your first mentor!
