The Best Apps for Success After College Graduation

By MP&F Staff

 AsuAsurion logorion, the technology support and protection partner of the nation’s leading wireless carriers and retailers, is offering grads advice to help leverage their mobile devices for real-world success.

Graduates looking to graduate from “social networking college student” to “networking business professional” need to make sure they stay connected and up their app game. Asurion knows you can’t afford to be without a phone during the job search, or while on the clock at a new job. Make sure you have a support and protection plan through your wireless carrier so you can quickly receive a replacement phone should yours be lost, stolen or damaged.

A few of the best apps to make a grad’s transition into the real world as smooth as possible include:

“Our devices have become essential for success in the classroom, and after as grads are entering the ‘real world’ and searching for jobs,” said Bettie Colombo, Asurion spokeswoman. “Being able to leverage your device to help ease that transition and land your dream job is more important than ever so you don’t miss your interview or getting information on a new contact at your dream company.”
