 An Ideal Interview Companion November 29, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
No one enjoys sitting in front of an interview board and be judged. And everyone has a pet fear, "What if they think I am too old to start over" or "How do I explain why I quit my first job?" You will be surprised to know how many people stay in a job they hate just because they don't want to go through the job search, especially the interview.
This book is a companion that makes you realize your problem is not unique or unsolvable. For every tough interview question, there is a smart answer presented here that will turn the table around and make a positive impact.
Vicky Oliver gives us sensible and witty answers that makes the reading and the interview preparation enjoyable and effective. The chapters are intuitively arranged, with a easy to read page layout, and plenty of tables and side notes. A great resource.

Ms. Oliver's very witty but down to earth approach to a subject that bedevils even the most seasoned interviewees, is a wonderful contribution to job-search literature. Anyone fretting about an important interview needs this book, to say nothing of those with friends or children in similar situations. Buy several and give them as gifts! She's a great writer. you won't be sorry.

Like another male reviewer, I have to say this book is way too narrow on its approach, which by itself is not bad but a little heads up in the cover of the book or the official review would be nice, hence the 1 star, so other guys will notice that this book is probably not for them.
The questions are definitely good, but the answers are not, as the author gives one very specific answer, but rarely gives any general advice on what employers are looking for in your answer.
Unless you somehow fit the title of this review, there are better books for you.
And good luck in your job search!
