The Engineer's Career Guide

Wiley is pleased to announce the publication of a unique career resource guide book, focusing on the non-technical aspects of an engineer's career. The Engineer's Career Guide provides essential advice on how to deal with career problems and come out ahead.

Engineering schools do not teach career skills, social skills, or the absolutely vital knack of navigating the corporate world. These are all tools which are absolutely necessary for an engineer to be successful in modern day corporate America.  

The Engineer's Career Guide puts key career advancement strategies all together in one book, giving the engineer a single source for a multitude of career issues. Whether newly graduated, mid-career, or soon-to-be-retired, engineers will find many invaluable real world, practical, proven, common sense career tips supported by actual work experiences and examples. 

This volume is perfectly timed for what the workforce is facing in today's economy, in which the strengths of career mobility and staying power are crucial to survival. The Engineer's Career Guide gives the reader many simple actions to take, as well as step-by-step, long term guidance. All the advice given is universally applicable to all engineers, and does not focus on any specific engineering field.

The Engineer's Career Guide is set to become essential for all engineers, engineering managers and human resource personnel/departments in engineering-dominated corporations. It will be a valuable text book in most engineering universities. Given the author’s unique view into the operations and thinking of American companies, it will also be of great interest to engineers outside America.
