FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Summary: College graduates face the ultimate final exam -- job-hunting in a tough job market -- but a wew Job Readiness Quiz helps them prepare to find a job after college

 

(QUINTESSENTIAL CAREERS: DeLand, FL) -– Students graduating in the next few weeks are facing one of the worst job markets in years, as a weak economy slows hiring at all levels.

 

"More than ever, because of the weak economy and a flood of other job-seekers, these college grads must really be smart job-seekers -- and really understand how to find a job," states career expert Dr. Randall Hansen, founder of Quintessential Careers (http://www.quintcareers.com/), an online career development site.

 

To assist new college graduates and other entry-level job-seekers, Quintessential Careers has published its 30th career quiz: The College Grad Job-Hunting Readiness Quiz. The 15-question quiz is intended to test respondents' level of job-search preparation and degree of understanding, according to Hansen.

 

"A lot of students spend so much time finishing up their studies that they have not had the time to really determine what type of job they want -- or even where they want to live," Hansen states.

 

The quiz, which covers such general job-hunting topics as networking, resumes, interviewing, references, etiquette, and expectations, can be found at: The College Grad Job-Hunting Readiness Quiz.

 

A companion study guide for the quiz, which Hansen describes as "providing all the basic tools and resources grads need to understand how to find a job," can be found at: The 15-Point College Grad Job-Hunting Study Guide.

 

The College Grad Job-Hunting Readiness Quiz is just one of 30 job-seeker quizzes and assessments published by Quintessential Careers. The others include:
