My review of 'Fearless Interviewing'

5 stars

I read 2/3 of this book, it is very easy reading. Up to chapter 8, negotiating salary. I will read this chapter as well, but the previous chapter are more applicable, as I would be willing to accept basic salary.

I have been on many interviews, but I do not get offers. Often times I do well on the technical part but not on the other half of the interview, eg. non verbal communication, being relaxed and enjoyable to be around. This book offers exercises and advice on how to be prepare for and answer common interview questions. I have printed out these exercises and intend to complete them. I like how the author breaks down skills into different catagories; general skills, job specific skills, gifts, etc. The author also includes advice for interpersonal success with interviewer.

At least I will be more prepared for interviews by having prepared answers …
