5 out of 5 stars It just works   November 23, 2009

I purchased an older edition before having an interview with an employer located in the one place in the country I had been wanting to move to for years.

I used the techniques explained in this book. The series of same-day interviews with the different panels went great. By pure chance I was the last person they interviewed that day, they asked me to step outside for a couple of minutes, they called me back and I was offered the job on the spot.

I have given this book to a couple of friends who were also interviewing for jobs. They both got the jobs they interviewed for.

I am not claiming that this book is magical, but it definitely teaches you how to interview correctly.

I have the earlier print of this booklet and decided that I needed the updated one. This is great and has helped me with my interviews. I still have not mastered the salary question from the potential employer but every other aspect has been great. Any one looking for a job in this market needs this book.


5 out of 5 stars Especially useful for dealing with the uncomfortable questions you'll be asked   February 25, 2010

This is one of the most useful and fun books I've found on the subject of interviewing. It provides techniques on how you can continually steer the direction of the interview in your favor, by reiterating your top four or five attributes that make you the best person for the job.

The book talks you through a substantial list of challenging questions you may be asked, from the expected ("Describe a mistake you made at your last job") to the strange ("So, tell me your favorite joke.") The authors provide excellent suggestions on how to respond tactfully while playing up your strengths.
