I.IJO Aaovor: Yes—if year high school grades were good enough; if you can pass an entrance ex amination; if you can afford it Question: Why should I go to colleger Answer: To continue your edu cation and place yourself in a bettor position in your chosen Will a college degree guarantee me a Job and a high ABOUT GOMG 10 COUNT i: Should I so to college T k. may do well in any flold; hut an other indiridual, with equal qual ideations, plus tbs added recom mendation of a college diploma, is certain to do better. As to the matter of promotions in business, put yourself in an employer’s position: If you had two men of equal ability and talents, except that one had a college education, which man would you promoter Question: Should I go on to col . _ lege even though I have not yet r: A college degree certi- chosen a careerr nos that you have completed a specified course of education. You still have to get out and get your self a Job, just as a high school graduate does. And you have to ’’earn” your way to the top. Question: Thai, why shouldn’t I go ahead and get a Job right nowT Answer: You can get a job right now—but a Job that requires no more than a high school education will not pay as much as a Job which sets a college degree as a requirement. As we said earlier, a college degree puts you into a position to realize a higher salary for your services. Question: If I start now, with some good company, isn’t it pos sible I might receive several pro motions in four years, and by then have a good start on a career? Answer: It's possible. It’s also possible that four years from now you will discover that a co-worker, with a similar salary and similar pay, is fresh out of college—and you must compete with him for future promotions. Question: Is a college education really so important in getting a ’’good” Job and is it such a factor in company promotions? Answer: Simply stated, the best Jobs go to college graduates be cause employers believe the col lege graduate is better qualified : Certainly. The college of your choice will appoint an advisor to chart a course of gen eral study and lend counsel to guide you to the choice of a career for which you are suited. GCTTMG A JOB NOW Question: I don’t want to go to college. I want to get a Job right away. How do I go about it? Answer: Decide the type of Job you would like to have ... factory work, office work, selling, etc. Once you have chosen the type of work you wigh to do, make a list of the companies in your com munity which might hire you. Visit the personnel office of each and fill out an application for employment. Question: Is that all there is to it? I just go around and make an application? Answer: That is the beginning. When you make application for employment, you let a prospective employer know that you are avail able. He may not need you today or tomorrow. Next week, how ever, an opening may arise and he will be looking through the job applications filed with the personnel office to see if a likely candidate for the Job is available. Question: Then, if I am suited for the job, they call me and tell me when to report to work? Net exactly. The Job •ppUcatiM that you fill nut at a ad always tafi aa employer all that he —like ta kww about yea. The Jib appticatioa provides general information. If yea are considered for employment, you will ho asked to come la for o Job interview ot which time more specific questions will bo asked. Question: What preparations should*! make for o Job interview? Answer: You should bo pre pared to “sell” yourself—to coo- .

The first impression you make ifl through appearance. Dress neatly, be well manicured and polished, but don’t overdo it If your clothes are flashy, you might be considered too flashy for the Job. An interviewer wfll Judge intel ligence not by how aweh you say but rather by what you say sad haw you say it Don’t bo afraid to talk about yourself, your hob bies, your achievements, what ever they may be, but don’t dreg it out. How can you display efficiency during a one-time interview? Sim ply by showing that you have given some advance thought to the interview. Bring with you a folder conUining documents that will be of interest to your pros pective employer—your birth cer tificate, high school credits, a certificate of health, and a brief resume, or personal history. You might even prepare a scrapbook, using information about yourself from your school yearbook, local newspaper, including two or three character recommendations from responsible adults. Your inter viewer might give this only a casual glance, but he will be im pressed—and he will know that you are sincerely trying to “sell” yourself and show that you are capable of handling the job which you seek. Question: What if I can’t find an opening in the field of my choice? What do I do then? Answer: Get a Job—doing what ever you like “second best,’’ or doing something you don’t like to do, if this becomes necessary. Look for a “second choice’’ Job that will give you some free time to continue looking for the kind of a Job that you really want. It’s always easier to get a new Job if you are working, rather than un employed. thn in San rrsuacisco, Calif.
