Product Description

KNOW WHAT TO SAY TO GET THE JOB!

Are you worried about what to to say in your job interview? Unsure how to answer correctly? Missing out on jobs because of mistakes you are making?

Leading interview coaches, Joe McDermott and Andrew Reed give you winning answers to the most frequently asked job interview questions including behavioural and competency based questions. With this expert guide you will know just what to say and what not to say so as to win the job you want.

HOW THIS BOOK WILL HELP YOU WIN IN YOUR NEXT INTERVIEW

The reality is that very few people are natural interviewees. Being interviewed does not come easy to most of us and in fact can be extremely difficult not to mention nerve wracking.

For most of us the interview is an unusual and rare situation. We may change jobs seldom during our lives and hence our interview skills are used infrequently. As a result they become rusty if indeed they were ever good to begin with.

This book is designed to be a powerful guide which will both teach you how to interview like an expert but also can be used as a resource for you to dip into when you need.

It includes:

- Winning answers to 121 tough interview questions
- Covers 80 Competency Based questions
- Detailed guide outlining what to include in the answer
- Sample winning answers and what to avoid at all costs

Plus you also get:
- A step by step guide showing you how to predict the questions
- Expert structures and magic formulas for top scores
- Powerful strategies proven to win jobs
- And much more

THIS EDITION UPDATED AND REVISED 2012

From the Inside Flap

This guide has been written by senior managers, all of whom have extensive experience of interviewing and being interviewed. In fact, during the past 15 years they have interviewed over 3,000 people collectively for a range of positions and organisations. They have seen applicants who look perfect on paper but through a lack of experience and preparation, perform so poorly at the interview they miss out on the job offer.

They know what works and doesn’t work in the interview room and having been interviewed many times themselves know exactly how it feels from both sides of the desk. They have combined all their learning into this great volume and provide the essential information you will need to ace any job interview irrespective of the level or industry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Useful Resource 26 April 2006
Format:Paperback
Very much written with the UK job market in mind and the answers are less 'gushing' than the American targeted book I also bought. Nicely structured and easy to navigate with about 50 competency based questions which I found really useful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book - Well written answers 13 July 2007
By Janet
Format:Paperback
I bought this along with another for a Customer Services Job and I was very impressed with the quality of the information and the answers. It covers probably the questions that are most likely to be asked and for me I think probablay 80% of the questions in my interview were actually in the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Useful Book 1 April 2006
By james.s
Format:Paperback
I bought this book because I am new to the job market and I had very little idea of how to answer questions at an interview. To be fair there are some answers which were not so useful because I dont have work experience yet but I appreciated the answers to questions for school leavers and graduates. Theres about 10 such as why choose that college/ subjects etc and some nice detail on how to answer. So good book.
