This review is from: What Can You Do with a Major in Business: Real people. Real jobs. Real rewards. (Paperback)
I'm giving this book 4* not because of my experience with it, but because of the potential I see that it holds to be a concise, quick read for those who are just starting out. If a young person is looking at a broad swath of careers, this would be a great book that they could pick up and spend an hour or two reading and clarify if and how they could get into business.

For anyone past 2nd year of college though, this would not be useful
