Looking for a Job?
This informative step-by-step guide prepares you mentally and physically to present your best self to a potential employer! While other job interview books focus on questions and pat answers to them, Ten Minutes to the Job Interview offers jobseekers everything they need to deal with in a high stress situation – an interview. No tricks or useless generic advice, here is the book that guides you to project your best image. Ideal for both the first-time job seeker and the seasoned employee caught in the after-effect of downsizing; this is the book that will help you convince a potential employer that YOU are the person to hire!

Ten Minutes to the Job Interview is divided into six, easy-to-read sections including:

• Prep Work in the Days Before the Interview – Preparation is the key to a successful interview.

• The Checklist – A quick reminder of the 12 points that result in a successful interview such as how to dress; what to take to the interview; getting to the interview on time and how to wait for the interview; how to greet the interviewer; how to handle tough and personal questions; how to ask the interviewer questions; how to make a closing statement and polite exit; interview follow-ups, and more.

• The Details – A detailed explanation of the checklist points mentioned above, with advice on how to perform during an interview.

• Out of Work Due to a Medical Condition – Revealing everything in an interview is not necessary and this section tells you how to handle a recent illness, injury or accident.

• Congratulations! You Got the Job! – Solid advice on how to maintain the job once you have been hired.

• Job Hunting/Cover Letter/Resume Writing/References and Resources – A list of the best resources for finding your ideal job and how to write a cover letter and resume.
