Lindsey Pollak’s Summary

Hello and thanks for connecting. I am an author, speaker and blogger specializing in Gen Y career and workplace issues.

From July to October 2009 I'm honored to be facilitating a series of official LinkedIn training webinars for college career services professionals. Learn more and register at http://grads.linkedin.com/CareerServices.

I am also the author of "Getting from College to Career: 90 Things to Do Before You Join the Real World," which is the guidebook I wish I'd had when I graduated from college. I write a career advice blog at http://www.lindseypollak.com/blog and I am the career contributor for ABC News on Campus.

Media appearances have included NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams, The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, BusinessWeek, CNN.com and NPR.

My professional speaking includes keynote speeches and workshops at universities, conferences and corporations around the country. Audiences have included Yale, Harvard, Columbia, Penn, Amherst, Duke, MIT, University of Michigan, University of Texas, Bliss Spas, Fidelity Investments, Merrill Lynch, MTV Networks, Time Inc. and many others.

For fun, I love to bake, decorate and eat cupcakes.
