No Experience Necessary: A Guide to Employment for the Female Liberal Arts Graduate.
Friedman, Sande; Schwartz, Lois C.
A guide for beginning employment for female liberal arts graduates (referred to as FLAGs), this book describes 14 fields found to be presently most accessible to FLAGs without advanced degrees: advertising, the art world, banking and finance, book publishing, computer programing, fashion (and beauty), films, Government, magazine and newspaper publishing, nonprofit, personnel and training, public relations, television and radio, and travel. Each field chapter provides a general description of the kind of work done in the field, where it is done, by what different kinds of departments, and what types of people. Each field chapter also includes detailed descriptions of entry level jobs, advancement opportunities, a general statement on salaries, specific recommendations regarding resources to employ when job hunting, and additional sources of useful information. The opinions in this book mainly reflect those of recent FLAGs and were gained through interviewing numerous FLAGs as well as compiling detailed profiles of over 600 beginning and second-level jobs. Other supplemental data came from employment agents, personnel interviewers, and prospective employers (male and female). Concluding chapters cover the areas of interest, job hunting, on the job adjustment and advancement, and opportunities available to part-time and free-lance mothers. (EA)
