Job Search and Personal Budget<br />
In this assignment, we are going to find a job (this could be your dream job or current job) and then use<br />
the Personal Budget spreadsheet located in Doc Sharing to fill out the spreadsheet based on your<br />
expected income and expenses. A grading rubric for Project 1 is available in Doc Sharing.<br />
Instructions for Project #1<br />
Using your income from your current job or using income from a future job that you are planning on<br />
having after graduating from college, construct a budget.<br />
Searching for a job: Using a daily newspaper or an online search engine, find the monthly income/salary<br />
which will be used as your income in your personal budget.<br />
Some useful job search websites: Monster (.monster.com/”>www.monster.com), Career Builder<br />
(.careerbuilder.com/”>www.careerbuilder.com), and Jobs (.jobs.com/”>www.jobs.com).<br />
