Abstract: This case documents Brent’s job search plan. Brent Bonnin is college student and will graduate in December and has only 4 months to find a job. Brent is a little unsure about how he should approach the job search. He asks for help from Campus Career Planning Center and tries to devise a job search plan. He develops a long to-do list with Elizabeth’s help. However, Brent realizes that there is a lot of uncertainty in the times it will take him to complete some of the milestones. In addition to the list estimating the most likely times that he and Elizabeth wrote down, he makes a list of optimistic and pessimistic estimates of how long the various milestones might take. Brent Bonnin is worried about keeping track of all the major milestones and getting his job search organized.
