Synopsis

Before you prepare for an interview it's useful to understand how organisations decide what they are looking for in a candidate, how they use this to draw up the questions, how selection procedures work, why employers conduct interviews and what's likely to happen at the average interview.

Ultimate Interview will give you all of the background information that you need as well as essential practice. Uniquely among interview guidebooks, it organises common interview questions according to specific job types, such as management, sales and marketing, administrative, clerical. This helps you to focus on the questions that are most relevant to your situation.

Each section looks at the thinking behind the questions, and suggests an effective method of answering. With additional advice on researching the background to a vacancy, and how skills and characteristics can be assessed and developed, this book is a must-have for all serious job hunters.
