I used to be terrorized by interviews. After a couple rejections, you end up asking yourself what is wrong with you. This book taught me to view things from the perspective that there was nothing wrong with me. I simply didn't know how to answer tough questions. Great Answers to tough interview questions will certainly help boost your self confidence. This book is like a tool box. Some questions use to terrify me, in some cases I could think about a question I was asked at an interview for months and still not know what to answer. Now, I can put myself in place of the interviewer because I know exactly what he wants to hear and how I can come out and shine out of a difficult question. You will never be shaking before an interview again once you have read this.
a must read for people looking for a job

This book helped me to find my first job in America. My English wasn't very good, but the book and the cassette were so intuitive and so concise that I prepared my interview with a minimal time.
Excellent prep to turn an interview into an offer!
