The objective of this book is to give men and women simple, straightforward guidelines on applying for a job: what to wear to an interview, how to act, and specific questions to ask. This book applies to you no matter your background, education, or nationality. Teenagers will learn how to display respect to impress employers; applicants without college degrees will exude confidence in order to land their dream job; college graduates will show perceptive analysis in order to acquire that coveted executive-level position; and entrepreneurs will exhibit competence in order to win that lucrative contract.

This book is unique because its advice is timeless and it educates the reader about the entire interview process. You will be given precise tools to control the flow of any conversation, perfect your resume, and you will be taught how best to display confidence during your interview. Most importantly, I provide 48 insightful, open-ended questions for you to ask your interviewers. These questions are not only pertinent to any position for which you may be applying but they will catch the attention of your interviewer, set the tone for the remainder of the interview, and force your interviewer to think critically right from the jump. You need to respectfully put your interviewer on the defensive in order to learn more about the company, impress your interviewer, and display your intelligence by asking a few of the 48 thought-provoking questions.

This book simplifies the job interview process by breaking it down into six manageable topics:

1 - Preparing for the Interview

2 - Appearance: What to Wear to Your Interview

3 - Attitude: How to Display Confidence During Your Interview

4 - Control the Flow of Any Conversation

5 - 48 Specific Questions to Ask Your Interviewers

6 - Communication Etiquette and Post-Interview Follow-up

Before you walk through the doors for your interview, you will have trained yourself not to think about the rent that is due in ten days, the fact that you have had only twenty dollars to your name for the past two months, or that this is the only company that asked you to come in for an interview. Instead, you will be confident that your interviewer will hire you on the spot, because you will have mastered the strategies set forth in this book.

I challenge you to memorize and implement the strategies in this book, tweaking them to fit your personality, so you too will succeed in LANDING ANY JOB IN ANY INDUSTRY!
