If you’ve ever worried about exactly what to say at a job interview, worry no more! This book walks you through a wide variety of job interviews, and helps you anticipate questions you will be asked, and will want to ask. And unlike other books I’ve seen on getting a job, this one even guides you through interviews with job recruiters, plus how to handle job evaluation and promotion interviews once you’ve got the job and want to keep it, or advance.
Whether you are looking for that first entry-level job or a skilled position, this book has all kinds of appropriate things you can say about yourself, your training and experience. This book provides not just one but several realistic ways to respond to the kinds of questions you might be asked at an interview. Moreover, they are specifically tailored to each of the many kinds of jobs presented.
Scripts for Winning Jobs helps you sail through job interviews with confidence, and get the job you want. It even helps you through the tricky salary negotiations with expressions that diplomatically get you into the salary range you want.
This book is great for people who speak English as a second language, but is also extremely beneficial for native speakers going through the job search process. You can also buy this book with a set of 4 C-D’s . It costs more, but listening to the interviews reinforces your reading and helps put the right words on the tip of your tongue when you go to your next job interview.
