Anne Fisher, IF MY CAREER'S ON THE FAST TRACK, WHERE DO I GET A ROAD. , $25 (288pp) ISBN 978-0-688-17387-6

Fisher (Wall Street Women), career columnist ("Ask Annie") at Fortune, counsels fledgling employees. She interviews experts, breezily covering salaries, benefits, work relations and getting a raise. Asked for the perfect interview statement, Fisher replies, "there is no magic bullet"; they want to know "what you expect to contribute to the company's success," rather than the other way around. Her solid tome will benefit June graduates. (May)
