Overview
How to Succeed in Your First Job is part of a three-part series of practical guidebooks on work transitions. These books guide new hires and their managers through the "breaking-in" process essential for helping new employees thrive.
It is relatively easy to get new hires to be competent to perform the basic tasks they were hired to do. But success on the job is due to much more than that. It comes from understanding how the organization really works and the unique aspects of how things get done in that particular organization. And it comes from learning how to "fit in"-knowing how to get accepted, get respected, and earn credibility.

How to Succeed in Your First Job: Tips for New College Graduates
Helping Your New Employee Succeed: Tips for Managers of New College Graduates
So, You're New Again: How to Succeed When You Change Jobs
Built around author Ed Holton's dynamic 12-step process-extensively field-tested and firmly grounded in research three volumes give new college graduates and their supervisors, as well as seasoned professionals who've changed jobs, essential insights, and tools for mastering a variety of transition challenges.
