I thought that the book had many strong points as to the interview process. It
was a very easy read and invited a lot of thought to come to mind. The most
important chapter in my mind was Chapter 9 " How to Dance the Dance of the
Interviewer". In it is listed many important points such as what to wear, how to
research the company and what points to pay attention to, what to actually bring
the interview. The most helpful part of the chapter was the part on answering
difficult interview questions and what answers to provide.
This book was definitely written for anyone that is looking for a job. It would
probably most helpful to younger adults- such as those just graduating from
college and entering the work force for the first time. It may also be helpful for
older adults who may have recently be down sized from a job and have not had to
interview for a long time and now suddenly have to again. It reviews many ideas
and if applied properly can give you an edge over another candidate.
I thought that the layout of the text was adequate and the illustrations were a
good way to start the chapter. I personally like the quotes provided as a prelude
the chapter as well. They gave some insight as to what was going to be discussed
as well as getting your mind thinking. The boxed bullet points at the end of the
chapter we also a nice way to bring the chapter to a close by reminding you what
was talked about, ways to improve yourself, and something to think about as you
read the subsequent chapter.
As a recent college graduate who recently had to interview for admission to a
professional graduate program, I thought while reading the book that it would of
been very helpful back when I was interviewing. It talked about all of steps
involved and even the types of questions that were asked. Having this resource
would have been very helpful. I would recommend it to anyone who is
interviewing for either a job or entrance to an advanced college degree ( i.e.
masters degree, specialist program or medical school).
