User Ratings and Reviews
1 Star No better than the 1990 version?
I tried using Yate’s approach in the mid ’90s. It nearly prevented me from getting a good job, so unnatural and glib were my interview responses. Based on the negative comments here, reactions are still the same.
5 Stars Great Book
I read an older version of this book back in 1995. I interviewed for a highly technical engineering job and to my total surprise about 70% of the three hour interview was covered in this book (I was on my own with the technical questions). I got the job in a research department at a major university.
Highly recommended.
5 Stars Great Book
This is a fantastic book that can really prepare you for a job interview! Lots of questions and ideas what interviewers are looking for.
5 Stars I got it from the library…
I always try to get the book from the library before I make the purchase. I liked this book very much. It gives you lots of questions, and a brief explanation of the background of the question. If the question is stupid, it will tell you so. And the references of this book is really helpful. I have decided to purchase the 2006 edition.
2 Stars Putting words in MY mouth? C’mon now . . .
This book is more than a bit superficial, and anyone who uses these “answers” can be spotted a mile off by professional interviewers. Read Martin’s other advice, but pass on his answers. Your answers need to come from the real you — which is likely to be a far more successful approach than putting someone else’s words into your mouth. That’s as dangerous an idea as I’ve ever heard for an interview . . .
