2.0 out of 5 stars Not nearly good enough to buy, April 24, 2006
By 
purplelady (Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews
Even though this book is inexpensive, I wouldn't recommend purchasing it. The job ideas are not inspiring, and not really up to date either. It barely skims the surface of what someone can do with an English major and/or writing experience, and never steps outside of the basic areas that you've probably already thought of yourself. It also doesn't give you a single idea as to how to break into any of the few jobs it mentions, if you happen to be looking for that kind of advice as well. Purchase something a little weightier and a little more expensive, it'll be worth it. This isn't.

4.0 out of 5 stars This Book is Major for English Majors!, May 24, 2000
By A Customer
"Great Jobs for English Majors" answers many of the questions a person seeking guidance in job-seeking may have. It covers many different occupations which would be of interest to "English Majors." The book includes jobs in the all forms of journalism, teaching, and government jobs. it also tells of the importance of networking and reasearch. I give this book four stars!
