College graduations have been taking place across the US in recent weeks. And many graduates are now busy in making decisions about everything from how to decorate their department to how to find their dream job. To help them, The Princeton Review, a popular source for books about getting into college, has considerd the new book about what to do when school is finished. It's called Why won't the landlord take this up, and it was written by TB. VOA' L has more. Dan Blunber just finished his last year at West University in K. where he majored in government. He is excited about the futuer, even though he is not sure what that future will bring. At the moment, I don't even know where I'm going to be living next year. I look at Washington. I look at returning to New York. I'm now looking at moving to Chicago. So it has been a little bit of struggle figuring out where I want to be and what I 'm going to be doing. While most of his classmates know where they are going to be living after graduation, then Blunber says many still don't have jobs. Neither did Hider Bray when finished Start college in NH a decade ago. She spent the next 3 years moving around and working at various jobs, including waitres' thing, telemarkting and building corperting housing. Now she is why won't the landlord take visa, its aim that providing college graduates with kinds of information they didn't get in college. I think in the US, especially college at somewhat extanded edlesson, when you finish, you are not quite sure how to care yourself. It's more of time to require, to listen, to find mentors, to start all over again. You sure to be going to be a freshman in life. That means handling in new set of realities how to pay off student months, find helping insurance, and budget money for food, housing and other necessities. T believes today's younger Americans are gradually with a differet outlook from their parents. Many of the students' parents were possibly joining the counter culture or maybe they were fighting the Vietnan war or whatever. A lot of them were coming into their adulthood in the late 1960s or 1970s. And that was a much different kind. I think that risk-taking was smelled the pime .I think kids now are a little bit more concern about striking a balance between being careful and taking care about yourself and finding out what we really want to do. T's book is filled with tips on how to leave independently and make pritical plans for the future, while holding on to a spirit advanture. While many graduates are returning home to live with their parents these days, she believes it is important that they start making their own decision as quickly as possible. She says that the biggest challenge will probably be finding a place to live. Urban aeras are madness now for young people.There is not the same kind of the fly outing to the subver that they are used to be.And that is causing an increditbly difficult and a real finacially unstable situation. Whereby if you are moving to San Fransisca, New York, LA or Chicago, the rent subjects so much higer than it used to be even 10 years ago. And for some people, that can eat up all their salary, and they have to get a second job. It is not a good idea. That means being flexible, says TB. And considering share housing or cities that are quite popular with young people. There is much better news for a college graduate when he comes to job-hunting. According to a national association of collgeg employers, 80% of the nation's graduates find the work by the end of their first year out of school. And despit the reason academic downturn, hiring of graduates is up more than 80%. Starting salaries have also reason, and the Internet is making the job hunt much easier. You can use the basic search anven to look for information. You can use the job sites. You can put your resume out. You can do your own website if you're an artiste or if you work in a digital media. I make the energy to the old fashion bolertin board for the news paper, and it is just espended a million fall. West Am graduate Dan Bluber says he knows it is time to focus on what he wants to do next. But he is more concern with the long term than the short term. I have been told by some many peole that your first job about a college is very often not a job that leads you to your autmid job. So I'm not overly concerd about where I will be next year. I'm more cocern about where I will be in 5 years. T says it is important to take that long view and advoid regrets later on. Giving yoursefe for a little bit of time write after a college, whether it is a year, 5 years, 10 years whatever, to discover what you really want to do, letting yourself go through many moves you go through right after the college. I think that is all very important. I'm not counselling rouling around the world for 10 years trying to figure out who you are. I do think that is important to strike a balance between what you've been told you what to do and figuring out what you really want.

College graduations have been taking place across the US in recent weeks, and many graduates are now busy making decisions about everything from how to decorate their department to how to find their dream jobs. To help them, The Princeton Review, a popular source for books about getting into college has conceived a new book about what to do when school is finished. It's called "Why Won't the Landlord Take Visa?", and it was written by Tara Bray. VOA's Nancy Beardsley has more:
Dan Blumberg just finished his last year at Wesleyan University in Connecticut, where he majored in government. He is excited about the futuer even though he is not sure what that future will bring:
" At the moment I don't even know where I'm going to be living next year. I looked in Washington. I looked at returning to New York. I'm now looking at moving to Chicago. So it has been a little bit of a struggle figuring out where I want to be and what I 'm going to be doing."
While most of his classmates know where they are going to be living after graduation, Dan Blumberg says many still don't have jobs. Neither did Tara Bray when finished Dartmouth College in New Hampshire a decade ago. She spent the next few years moving around and working at various jobs, including waitresing, telemarkting and building cooperative housing. Now she's written "Why Won't the landlord Take Visa?". It's aimed at providing college graduates with the kind of information they didn't get in college:
"I think in the US especially college is somewhat of an extended adolescence. When you finish you are not quite sure how to carry yourself. It's more of a time to be quiet, to listen, to find mentors, to start all over again. You're sort of going to be a freshman in life."
That means handling a new set of realities how to pay off student loans, find health insurance, and budget money for food, housing and other necessities. Tara Bray believes today's younger Americans are graduating with a differet outlook from their parents:
" Many of the students' parents were possibly joining the counter culture or maybe they were fighting the Vietnan War or whatever. A lot of them were coming into their adulthood in the late 1960s or 1970s, and that was a much different time. I think that risk taking was smiled upon.I think kids now are a little bit more concerned about striking a balance between being careful and taking care of ourselves and finding out what we really want to do."
Tara Bray's book is filled with tips on how to live independently and make practical plans for the future, while holding onto a spirit of advanture. While many graduates are returning home to live with their parents these days, she believes it is important that they start making their own decisions as quickly as possible. She says their biggest challenge will probably be finding a place to live:
" Urban areas are magnets now for young people.There is not the same kind of flight out into the suburbs that there used to be, and that is causing an increditbly difficult and a real finacially unstable situation, whereby if you are moving to San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, or Chicago, the rents are just so much higer than they used to be even 10 years ago. And for some people that can eat up all their salary, and they have to get a second job. It is not a good idea."
That means being flexible, says Tara Brey., and considering shared housing or cities that aren't quite as popular with young people. There is much better news for college graduates when it comes to job hunting. According to the National Association of Collgeg Employers, 80% of the nation's graduates find work by the end of their first year out of school. And despit the recent economic downturn, hiring of graduates is up more than 80%. Starting salaries have also risen, and the Internet is making the job hunt much easier:
" You can use the basic search engines to look for information. You can use the job sites. You can put your resume up. You can do your own website if you're an artist or if you work in digital media. I make the analogy to the old fashioned bulletin board or the newspaper, and it is just expended it a million fold."
Wesleyan graduate Dan Blumberg says he knows it is time to focus on what he wants to do next. But he is more concerned with the long term than the short term:
" I have been told by so many peole that your first job out of college is very often not a job that leads you to your ultimate job. So I'm not overly concerned about where I will be next year. I'm more cocerned about where I will be in 5 years."
Tara Bray says it is important to take that long view and advoid regrets later on:
" Giving yourself a little bit of time right after college, whether it is a year, 5 years, 10 years, whatever, to discover what you really want to do, letting yourself go through the many moods you go through right after college, I think that is all very important. I'm not counseling roaming around the world for 10 years trying to figure out who you are. I do think that it's important to strike a balance between what you've been told you what to do and figuring out what you really want."
