What to Say in Every Job Interview: How to Understand What Managers are Really Asking and Give the Answers that Land the Job
by Carole Martin
Overview
"TELL ME ABOUT YOURSELF . . ." Decode the hidden meaning behind interview questions and prepare the perfect answer to land the job
During a job interview, there are no right or wrong answers, just better and worse answers. When you rethink the process in those terms, you'll gain a huge advantage over the competition.
What to Say in Every Job Interview shows you how to focus on the factors of the job, rather than answering questions "correctly." As a professional interviewer, Carole Martin has spent years on the other side of the desk. She knows exactly what she’s looking for in every job candidate and exactly how to find it. Now, she reveals all the secrets.
Martin gives you a holistic plan for preparing yourself to best answer every interviewer's three primary concerns:
- Can you perform the job?
- Are you a good fit with the company culture?
- Can the company afford you?
What to Say in Every Job Interview shows you where to find the critical factor interviewers seek with each question and how to present yourself in the best possible way on the spot and under pressure.
