I love the Knock 'Em Dead series!
I'm retired now, but I bought this book for my daughter-in-law when she moaned about interviewing for jobs. It provides the reader with the psychology behind interviewing so that you understand what the interviewer is really asking and you're never caught without an answer. It's also full of great tips. I have an older version of this book that I marked up and used for years throughout my career for both being interviewed and interviewing candidates. The entire Knock 'Em Dead series is worth reading for the young professional and it's a great addition to your library. I can't tell you how many times I've loaned my books out to job seekers, but I thought my daughter-in-law needed her own copy to mark up and make it her own. Applying the wisdom in this book will increase your skills and transform your interviewing. It will definitely put you in front of other candidates who aren't as prepared. Happy job hunting!

I picked up my first copy of this book in 1994 and bought a few revisions over the years. My wife and I have used it throughout our careers and found it essential to preparing for interviews.

Worthy read for Job Hunters
This was a useful read to think about interviewing. To date, the preparation was a bit overkill for the 4 interview that I have conducted, but it did help me prepare my thoughts and considerations. Additionally, it opened my eyes to potential pitfalls in answering some questions.The advise on dress and attire is a good starting point but may vary greatly with specific organizations - speaking with current employees is a huge help.If you are in the job market, I think this is a must read.
