Publisher's Summary

Learn from my 20 years of interviewing and hiring people just like you, across multiple Fortune 500 companies.

Don't take my word for it - hear the real stories of how people landed their dream job with this information.

You're qualified for the job - it should be yours. Let me show you what goes through the head of the interviewer so you can use it to your advantage. An advantage others won't have.

I've captured a highly condensed set of recommendations in this book that will put you in the very small set of interviewees that will stand above other candidates.

Whether you are seeking an entry level or an experienced management position, these recommendations will give you the edge. I see "bad" behaviors across all levels of interviews, without candidates even being aware of what they are doing that prevents them from being hired.

You don't need to memorize 101 interview questions and answers.

You need actual experiences from the other side of the table to guide you.

Listen to hiring managers. Is the book you're reading now written by the person who decides to hire you, or by someone else involved in the process such as a recruiter or human resources role? If so, their guidance may get you an interview, but won't give you insight into what goes through the manager's head.

For the new employee or the inexperienced

This is an excellent book for the new employee or the inexperienced, but not appropriate for experienced and managerial job candidates.

Worth a listen

Enjoyed this narration as it provided useful information for a successful job interview. Subject material was well thought out and a good reminder of what you should and shouldn't do in answering interview questions.

Better Suited To Paper/eBook

Got a little decent information from it, but nothing I haven't heard before online for free. Didn't find it worth $10, as felt it was mostly giving examples of answers to questions where the answers simply weren't relevant to me.
Also I believe the books purpose was to be read and then reviewed before an interview. I can't review this book by skimming over the main points using Audible.
