From AudioFile
The writers of this guide take a mechanical approach to the task of performing well in a job interview. They meticulously classify types of interviews, the many variables in interview settings, and the possible ways to approach them. They give snappy answers to common interview questions, and discuss 17 common errors and 32 key principles to think about before interviewing. The relaxed Richard Rohan reads the busy abridgment with pacing that helps the ideas hang together. The focus is more on performing well than on being sincere or natural and, within this framework, the authors' advice is solid. It all adds up to impressive information and analysis, rather than a broader, more integrated learning experience. T.W. © AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Not for an experienced professional...
I got absolutely nothing out of this book, and I doubt anyone else will either unless they have very little experience interviewing. It might be a good book for high school graduates, or socially backward college graduates, but anyone who's had more than three job interviews will find it lacks insight and is terribly boring.

I had to force myself to read the whole thing, which is pretty sad since it's a very short book. The only thing that kept me going was the thought that I can't review it in good faith if I haven't read the whole thing!


Ok...
This is a very good book with many ideas on interviews and related etiquette, but unfortunately it just goes over the same things again and again. It could've been cut in half easily, without any important information lost. But this is a minor complaint - I can't wait to try out principles described in the book in a real-life interview.
