I work in a career center and there are points made in this book that other books of much longer length and very pricey just don't seem to touch on.  This should be in everyones library to read at least a few days before the interview so you can really digest some of the wisdom that the author is shares.Some points that I really like - "This is about what you can do for my team and my company."  Sounds simple, right?  But how many times do people go on and on about what they are looking for in a company or what their needs are.  The hiring manager doesn't want to hear your problems - they want to hear the reasons why you should be chosen over everyone else.The other thing that hits home is the point that the "interview starts when you get out of your car."  Treating the receptionist in an unprofessional manner might doom you before you even start!The bulk of the book covers a few different questions with examples of good responses, poor responses, and what to do if you having something negative in your past that needs to be addressed.  This is done for each question!!One of the best sections is the insight as to "Why" the question is being asked in the first place.Tuckerton gives sage advice and really tries to change the paradigm of the reader.  You need to think like a hiring manager when you go for an interview, not an interviewee!Thank you very much for this wonderful resource!
