Interviewing is such an important part of getting a job, and now there’s a new resource to help job seekers of all levels and functions. I’m thrilled to announce that “The Essential Job Interview Handbook” is in bookstores and available on Kindle and Nook. If you’d like to read three, free chapters, please go to my website: JeanBaur.com.
What’s different about this book? It combines preparation and strategy with sample questions and answers, and unlike other interview books, gives “good, better and best” options for each question with a brief explanation of what makes the strongest answers. And it’s fun. Each chapter has sidebars with stories from my 20+ years of career coaching, and a “Ditch It!” section that includes things you should never say in an interview. I’m confident this work will help you whether you’re just staring out or have been working a long time. And if you’re in transition, it’s a must. Go to your local library as ask for it.
I love the way you use real life examples and show the answers in three forms, good, better and best. It is so easy to see how you can use the examples in the book to apply to your own interview.
Thanks, Erin. That is exactly what I was trying to do. Interviews are so unpredictable that it’s hard to know what you’ll be asked, but I believe that the “good, better and best” examples provide strategy–and that make you ready for everything!
