‘A game-changer for anyone who feels like they're waiting for their ‘real’ career to start. You can either read Alexa’s book, or keep having the ‘Sunday Scaries’ for the rest of your f*cking life. You pick.’

Sarah Knight, New York Times bestselling author of Get Your Sht Together*

Banging your head against the wall with the job search? #ENTRYLEVELBOSS will help you stop freaking out.
Miserable in your current role but no idea what to do next? With this book you’ll be able to make a decision, no personality tests required.
Convinced that you are the most unhireable person on this planet? That’s statistically improbable — and you’ll be amazed at how employable you’ll be by the time you have finished reading.

This is personal training for your career, based on a step-by-step plan that includes:

All the intel you need about getting hired in today’s world, in today’s industries, and with today’s tools.
Hyper-specific advice including templates for networking emails, CVs, and cover letters.
Straight-to-the-point guidance about what not to do.
A solid dose of humour and emotional support from someone who really has been there.

The world of work has changed, and getting hired today for a job you actually want is going to take a lot more than a neatly typed cover letter and a well-pressed suit. Straight-talking careers expert Alexa Shoen provides a practical job-search plan and a dose of humour and good sense as she helps you navigate the challenges and opportunities of the new economy.

‘An accessible, enjoyable read to help anyone clamber up even the most slippery career ladder.’
