Getting a college degree is a major life achievement but what happens after you graduate? Do you jump into the job market? Do you stay in school and get a Masters? Those are just some of the questions that Dr. Joseph Atman asks Human Relations Expert Ricklynn Woods in this episode of Educate Everyone. Ricklynn talks about how to decide if a four-year degree is enough or if a Masters makes sense and puts the spotlight on some of the most common mistakes recent grads make when searching for that elusive first job. And this episode is not just aimed at 20-somethings. Ricklynn talks about gettting her first degree at the age of 39 and how she strategically planned her entry into the job market. Her plan is the product of life experience, asking the right questions, remaining curious and doing her due diligence - all leading up to a successful career helping others find their own successes.
