Recommendation

Career development expert Ron Fry focuses on how to prepare for a job interview and how to conduct yourself during the interview. While he covers some of the same ground he's covered in some of his other books and as well as the territory in other career books, such as What Color Is Your Parachute, Fry focuses helpfully on a critical job-finding skill - asking the right questions during your job interview. He tells you how to respond when the interviewer asks you, "Do you have any questions?", because your response indicates your level of interest in the job. Besides listing questions to ask or to modify to meet your own circumstances, Fry provides helpful preparatory questions you should ask yourself to clarify what kind of job you really want. getAbstract recommends this book to job seekers at the middle or lower management level. By the time you get to the executive suite, you'll know what else to ask.

Take-Aways

  • A great job interview is more important than ever in today's tight job market.
  • Every interviewer wants to know if you can do the job and if you can do it better than the other applicants.
  • Even if you are qualified and motivated, interviewers want to see if you fit in with the company's other employees.
