Why Shouldn't We Hire You?
 | |  | |  | |  |
A search through the local library or bookstore quickly shows
that there are many books on job-seeking and in this case, job-
interviewing. So what makes Why Shouldn’t We Hire You
unique? As with career reference books, it is likely that all
candidates invited to interview will have much in common:
they will have a similar mix of experience and qualifications.
The goal of the interviewee is to stand out from the rest of
the group. The unique premise, content and presentation
offered by Why Shouldn’t We Hire You? is what sets this book
apart from all the others.
Knowledge, confidence, preparation and communication are,
of course, essential components to good interviewing. But,
according to authors David Endress and Ronald Venckus, it is
the foundation upon which these components are built that
will determine how effective one is in the interview. Analysis
and knowledge of oneself and the prospective company are
key; Why Shouldn’t We Hire You? guides the reader through
this critical process of discovery and then discusses methods
to perfect the presentation.
Another distinct feature is found in the second half of the
book: the twelve mini-chapters that make up “Coaches
Corner.” This section contains complementary examples,
resources, exercises and techniques that take one beyond
mere discussion. Topics such as “What is the Interviewer
thinking?” “Why didn’t I get the job” and “Preparing your
questions to ask the interviewer” provide a thought-provoking
insiders’ look at what makes for a successful interview.
Endress and Venckus each bring four decades of experience as
human resource executives and career counselors/ coaches
and hand over the keys to an outstanding interview
performance for first-time job seekers, college graduates, and
high-level executives alike. Why Shouldn’t We Hire You? will
guide the job seeker to a stellar interview performance.
