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.
