Get the Best Jobs in Dp: The Computer Professional's Technical Interview Guide

The market for computer programmers is vast and growing daily, and every one of those millions of jobs requires a technical interview. Mr. Krause's book neatly solves the applicant's problems of not knowing what the most-frequently asked questions are for each technical area. Granted, some of the technology may seem antique, but I can't think of a major company that doesn't have a pressing need for as many mainframe programmers as it can lay its hands on. The other feature of this book is the reverse view. Simply stated, it gives managers sets of questions (as well as the correct answers) to ask their candidates. This provides structure to the hiring manager's interview and, because the same questions will be asked of each candidate, it provides a level playing field when she or he has to evaluate multiple candidates. Yes, of course there is the chance that a manager will ask questions that the candidate has just read in this book, but there's nothing to be done about that. As a data processing professional for thirty-six years, I believe that I'm qualified to recommend this book. I bought mine in 1989, and I still find it useful today.
