Manufacturing discusses the key information readers need to know to plan a successful career in this field. Offering a breakdown of available jobs in this industry, as well as tips for success, a complete history of manufacturing, and an overview of the state of jobs in the field today, this new resource is invaluable for recent graduates or seasoned workers looking for an inside edge in this competitive job market. An index, further resources, and helpful box features round out this comprehensive guide.
