This series is for people looking to find out about a particular career, profession or area of work. Each guide includes: information on entry to university and college courses; guidance on securing a place on the right degree course; the most effective job-hunting tactics; and profiles of students and young professionals in the industry. Self-employment is not usually considered a first career option, as employment skills are traditionally learned in the workplace. This book offers a guide for those thinking about starting a business straight after leaving education.
