Description
Ehrenreich highlights the people who've done everything right--gotten college degrees, developed marketable skills, and built up impressive résumés--yet have become repeatedly vulnerable to financial disaster. Armed with a plausible résumé of a professional "in transition," she attempts to land a white-collar job--undergoing career coaching, personality testing, and an image makeover. She is proselytized, scammed, lectured, and--again and again--rejected.
