** UPDATED FOR POST COVID-19 /// REVISED EDITION JUNE 2021 **
"Worth reading for any interviewee, young and old." Mateo Nakamura, Former COO, Nomura International
A how-to-guide that gives you the confidence to meet your interviewers on equal terms and present them with all the answers they are looking for.
Crammed with tips on how to walk tall, feel good, and ace any interview you face.
The book shows you how the interview is a two-way process, and how you can engage more fully with the people involved as well as meet all the technical requirements.
The curious fact is, most people who conduct interviews aren't qualified to do so and they don't necessarily know what to look for or what makes the best fit for a role. They'll believe they can judge character or competence, as we all do, but often what steers their opinion is separate from the task at hand.
This guide takes a close-up look at this human element, and at how your pitch, your manner, and your presentation all stream in to the emotional and intuitive antennae of the interviewers. A good deal of the actual business that decides your success is going on beneath the glossy interview room surface.
The book's easy-to-read style belies a steely heart. We are in it to win it, whatever the level: executive, student, and starter alike.
"Encouraging and inspiring and soothing in one go. This book will help many candidates to prepare well for any interview but also, crucially, to be themselves authentically in the process." Emily Fine, BHP
