JOB INTERVIEWS: TOP ANSWERS 2 TOUGH QUES

Drawing on 25 years' experience of training recruiters and his work as one of the UK's best known career strategists, John Lees, author of How to Get a Job You'll Love, takes you step-by-step through the interview process. The 3rd edition of Job Interviews: Top Answers To Tough Questions not only analyses 225 of the most typical (and demanding) interview questions, but shows you how to prepare yourself thoroughly for the whole range of topics and approaches that an interview might throw at you. This book prepares you for one of the most important aspects of career transition: how to answer the toughest job interview questions effectively. This advice will help you whatever kind of job you are chasing - public or private sector, mainstream employer or not-for-profit organization. This book is intended to be used to enhance your job search efforts either as a stand-alone product or in combination with How To Get A Job You'll Love and Why You? CV Messages to Win Jobs, also by John Lees. This guide is practical and hands-on, recognising that you have a limited amount of time available for interview preparation. Use it by practising your answers, and preparing your evidence. Listen to yourself and, in the process, determine what works and what doesn't. If you don't have the evidence to support the claims you've made in your CV, and if you haven't prepared enough to cope with probing questions, you've made the classic mistake of trying to do the work of the interview room itself. The real work is in the preparation you do now, anticipating questions and practising your responses. 225 of the most common interview questions A 'fast-track' preparation option if your interview is TOMORROW!
