Product Description
Wouldn't it be nice if you could just walk into an employer's office, sit down, relax, answer questions honestly-in short, "just be yourself"-and instantly get the job? Unfortunately, the real world doesn't work like that. With people switching careers more and more often and the competition fierce for every position that becomes available, one has to be primed for any question an interviewer may throw at you.
Packed with more than 450 sample questions, Acing the Interview gives the listener candid advice on answering even the trickiest and most unexpected interview questions. Written by the employment expert Dr. Phil called "the best of the best," this unique and powerful audiobook helps the listener take charge of any interview situation. Having heard just about every conceivable interview question and answer since joining the placement and recruitment field in 1973, Tony Beshara knows firsthand what responses will get someone hired. In this audiobook, he arms listeners with the surefire answers that will keep them from getting weeded out from the large pool of eager applicants.
Acing the Interview helps prepare listeners for difficult-and sometimes even deceptively simple- questions, including:
You really don't have as much experience as we would like-why should we hire you? * How many hours in your previous jobs did you have to work each week to get everything done? * What do you consider most valuable-a high salary, job recognition, or advancement?
In addition, the book also arms you with many questions to ask prospective employers that could prevent you making a big job mistake, such as:
What would you say are the worst parts of this job? * What are the major problems facing the company and this department? * Why aren't you promoting from within?
Acing the Interview takes listeners through the entire process, from the initial interview to evaluating a job offer, and even into salary negotiation. It's a must-have guide that will enable them to get the job of their dreams.

Reviews - What do our customers think?
 | Good review of the culture of the current business job market Nov 30, 2009 |
| I bought this book as I was preparing to go on my first round of interviews as a medical resident searching for my first real job as an independent physician. I think the book is clearly (and understandably) geared more towards those in a business-like profession--e.g. marketing, advertising, finance, consulting, etc. I think the most helpful part of the book is the beginning that talks about how transient we have all become in the job market, the personalities of the types of people you may interview with and how to "wow" them and what they have at stake in hiring (or not hiring) you, different types of interviews (panel interviews, series of interviews, etc.), how to be aggressive in pursuing opportunities in the discovery and actual interviewing phases, etc. I think the book was particularly good at how to address "rough spots" in your work history with honesty and grace. I also think the book is helpful in teaching you to think from the interviewer's perspective. I think everyone who is interviewing for a new job could benefit by spending some time with this book as clearly most of us do not interview frequently and can always use some brushing up on how to approach various interviewers and situations, how to address difficult questions, and to review some of the types of questions that may be asked in order to brainstorm some good answers before the fact--especially in this economy and brutal job market we all need to make the most of each potential job possibility. | | |  | Good Tips for Taking a Direct Approach Sep 21, 2009 |
| Wonderful resource for questions and answers that you will encounter during the interview process. Especially beneficial to determining if you are still a candidate. Encourages readers to take charge of the interview process. | | | | Being Liked is as important as being competent Aug 18, 2009 |
| The strength of this book is the emphasis on personal relationship skills with the interviewer. Being able to handle tough interview questions requires substantive answers combined with the ability to deliver them in a credible way. This is not easy and the book gives an excellent baseline of ideas that leaves the reader with some work to do to nail an interview. Marketing Me Book: How to keep your job in any economy | | | | Great book Aug 17, 2009 |
| Easy reading. Informative. Instills confidence. Covers every aspect and all one should know before, during and after interview. Highly recommended. | | |  | Did anybody proofread this? Aug 15, 2009 |
| The advice itself in the book seems good, but when the first 13 pages have 6 typos in them it is hard to take the author seriously. This trend follows through the rest of the book and I would say on average I encountered 1 mistake every 3 pages or so. If reading a book with tons of typos, spelling errors and omitted words distracts you from the content, don't even bother with this book because it will drive you crazy. | | | Write your own review about Acing the Interview: How to Ask and Answer the Questions That Will Get You the Job!
