Senior Career Consultant, Right Management, Milwalukee March 26, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book is excellent both for job-seekers and recruiters. I have used it extensively with my executive and professional candidates, and all have felt much better prepared for interviews because of it. It is an excellent resource, particularly for experienced individuals.
Effective, simple and to the point April 6, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The author carefully gives you the information to help you prepare for your next interview, even if the employer is not conducting a competency based interview. I have had three interviews in the last two weeks and two of three employers used competency based interviewing techniques. I was fully prepared and unsurprised. The book is also simple to read and provides you with summaries that help bring it all together. Additionally, the book gets to the point. I was examining my competencies in the first chapter. The book is also helpful in that it provides case studies that help improve your responses.
A Must for Targeted Selection/Compentecy-Based Interviews June 28, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book is a must if you have a targeted selection or competency-based interview in the near future or if you are planning to change jobs in the near future. In fact, even if you don't plan on searching for a new job within a year, I still recommend this book due to the planning advice it gives.
This is by far the best all-in-one book for targeted selection or competency-based interviews. Ms. Kessler is an excellent author and she breaks down the process on how to prepare, how to perform during the interview, and how to follow up after the interview.
The only interview book that makes sense December 28, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
All the other books I tried were nothing like the interviews I was actually having. Instead of having to memorize rote answers, this book helps you to understand what the interviewer is looking for and why. It is not only helping me prepare for interviews; it is helping me understand how I can improve my on-the-job skills so that I am even more appealing in the future for jobs or promotions.
Great for landing interviews June 16, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
After re-writing my resume using the competency format, the interviews started pouring in! Good examples and guidelines. Have organized all my competencies and interviews are much easier.
Also recommend the full book on writing interviews.
