Description

In this roll-and-move game, each player is attempting to either become the first player to get a job or to be the last player to go bankrupt. On each player's turn they roll the die and move their pawn around the board. Depending on which space they land on, they will most likely draw a card, which will either give them additional qualifications to get a job, interview advice, or contacts. A player can use these cards to move into the Interview Space, and with a little luck and the right cards, the player can win the game. Similarly, players will also collect "Mail" cards during the game, which are bills they must pay periodically. Thus, a player may end up going bankrupt due to their bills before they have a chance to find a job.
