Excellent course. Seems silly at first to have a 'find a job' course and from my experience hiring people and looking for work myself it should be a required course in High School or any program.

Great prep for linkedin, resume checks, formatting, and more. I just wish there was a little section for re-learning big things I should keep in the noggin.
