Summary: Terrible Formatting & Poor Content
Review: The format of this book is horrible!! The content is formatted like you might expect with Questions and Answers. Unfortunately, the author doesn't keep it simple. Instead you will find "Green Light" and "Red Light" examples and poorly written content within slightly humorous titles. I don't have the time to go into great depth but if you want a more serious publication on interviewing then I suggest: "The Complete Q&A Job Interview Book", Jeffrey G. Allen. The formatting and content complement each other well.Best of luck to you!

Summary: This is how Microsoft interviews
Review: This book can rehabilitate you and may indeed place you where you'd like to be. I have been on both sides of the interview process over many years and it's amazing, in retrospect, that I've managed to work or have any decent employees. From the most basic preparation, (something I've never done- except to fret over my outfit,) to practicing, seems like a no brainer- I speak for myself. EVERYBODY knows you're not suppossed to dis a past employer, right? I've known that for years, and I just did it last week. I knew when I was doing it, that it was wrong; but I couldn't dig my way into a more positive response. In fact, that's why I bought the book. Fry takes you around those stumbling blocks with a variety of approaches, even with regard to keeping a flow in the facts that you are putting forth. Of course, you have to do the work. As with every manual, it isn't a novel, it's behavior, and practice, not how well, (again, in my case,) you `understand' it. You can't go wrong with the material here. It's sound, it's been tested and it's completely common sensical- it just doesn't come by osmosis. Do it, it helps. Good luck.

Summary: designed for upper level postions, but still good
Review: this is a great book for the price.... however, this book is not geared toward entry-level positions at all... i am applying for an assistantship for grad school and it is not quite geared toward this either, however, the book has great organization and great topics... it does have some great questions to help you think before you sit down for the real thing!

Summary: Good for an inexperienced interviewee
Review: This would have been a good book for someone with little experience in interviewing, such as recent college graduates. However, lot of the information was nothing I haven't heard already. Another problem was that it kept referring to problems such as 'corporate downsizing', which really hasn't been a problem in industry over the last two years. This made the material seem dated....
