Fearless Interviewing:How to Win the Job by Communicating with Confidence

Rating:
Summary: An absolute must-have for anyone on the job market!
Review: "Fearless Interviewing" makes it EASY by breaking down the questions into groups that can easily be managed. I used to particularly have problems with what she calls "stress questions". I have Marky to thank because I absolutely sailed through my last two interviews and got a job offer today! The help with salary negotiation came in handy too - I'm being paid at the TOP of the scale! Thank you, thank you!

Summary: ABSOLUTELY FEARLESS
Review: BE PREPARED TO GO IN AN INTERVIEW EXACTLY AS THE BOOKS SAYS. IVE SEEN THEM ALL, AND PRETTY MUCH THEY ARE ALL USELESS. LIKE MARKY SAYS, WHAT DO THEY EXPECT YOU TO DO, MEMORIZE ANSWERS TO 200 POTENTIAL QUESTIONS?! THIS BOOKS HELPS YOU TAKE STOCK OF YOUR SKILLS AND KNOW THEM PASSIONATELY. EQUIPPED WITH THIS, YOU CAN JUST ABOUT ANSWER ANY QUESTION POSED. ITS SIMPLE, SHORT, AND STRAIGHTFORWARD. HATS OFF MARKY!

Summary: The book that got me not 1 offer but TWO.
Review: I've always felt uncomfortable with interviewing, to the point where my hands used to sweat and I felt embarrassed offering a handshake. I've always felt like it was such a fake situation! A career counselor recomended this book by Marky Stien and it made me feel so sure of myself I felt like a tiger! Her method is that you first make a good impression, then answer with specific answers that refer to real experiences you've had. They're easy to remember and they are not fake, because they'r from your real life. I read the book and CONQUERED. I got TWO JOB OFFERS!

Summary: Not for every interview
Review: This book was fairly useful, but I felt that a lot of the information was geared to high-end professionals and not your average person just interviewing for a job. For instance, the chapter on salary negotiation was a bit over the top. Stein tells you to go in and bargain for an incredibly high salary and then just stand up and shake hands when the interviewer comes to a number you like. It was a prety useless chapter considering most people won't be making the 80,000-120,000 salaries she kept mentioning. The other problem I had was with one of the early statements in the book - Stein says "don't memorize," and yet at the end of the book we are supposed to know over 20-40 of these "Q Statements." I liked the idea of Q statements and backing up your answers with solid examples, but the rest of this book was just common sense, like how to dress and research the company beforehand. I can see now why she might have had the trouble she cites publishing it. There is nothing here you can't find in another book. It's ok, not great.
