Product Description

Product Description

Designed with serious job hunters in mind, this handbook tackles the fear of every interviewee - being asked a question he can't find an answer to, such as: what can you do for us that someone else cannot do?; what are the reasons for your success?; and what decisions are most difficult for you?

4.0 out of 5 stars A valuable addtion to interview preparation, 6 Jul 2000
After struggling at my first two interviews, I decided to buy this book. I found the answers to stress interviews, and the section on 'how to knock em dead!' particularly useful. On reading the book, and carrying out the suggested preparation, I was offered the next two positions I applied for. This was great in itself, but watching the enthusiasm with which some of my answers were greeted, and the compliments paid to me afterwards by the interviewers, made the purchase of this book even more satisfying. For this reason I strongly recommend it. The only down side is the subjective nature of some advice in the book, such as on what to wear e.g the colour/ fabric of your tie! The book also is a bit weak when covering more modern aspects of job hunting , like the use of the internet.

4.0 out of 5 stars If you want an interview reference book, buy this one, 12 Oct 2000
By K. Street (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a great book if you're trying to get a job and you want something to point you in the right direction. It gives sensible answers that you can actually use, and illustrates them with concrete examples. By far the most useful book I've seen. I'd ignore the fashion advice though, because it clearly hasn't been updated in the last 10 years and is scarily dodgy. Tartan to an interview! White shirts with pin stripes! Scarves? Yuck.

4.0 out of 5 stars It worked for me, 18 Jun 2000
By A Customer
I must admit I was sceptical about this book. But I had an interview coming up so I thought I'd give it a try. A month later I've got the job and a massive pay rise, too.

Another reviewer criticised the "stock answers" but this misses the point. Don't use the specific responses suggested in the book (for a start, most of them would sound really naff in real life situations) but get a feel for the underlying spirit and you'll soon be prepared to field those tricky questions.

After ten years of unsuccessful interviews I've suddenly hit the jackpot. It could be coincidence but then again it could be down to this book.
