I have been in HR for a few years. Interviewing is a big part of my job. I like to think I have a handle on what to ask and how to decipher the responses. I read this book and completed online certification process. The author's supporting research may surprise you however, the candidate trait of attitude has rarely been emphasized by hiring authorities or career experts. Until now. This book will show you a much-needed contrarian perspective. You will learn how to make better decisions for yourself, clients or organizations regardless if you are a job candidate or hiring authority. The soft skill of attitude has rarely been the focus of hiring decisions over the more hard skills such as educational pedigree, actual job experience and technical proficiency. The author paves an important road in this discussion. Especially as the world has become more flat, and job candidates, and those who recruit or hire them, need something extra to flourish in a global economy. In my opinion this is an excellent book, with provocative and valuable content in every chapter.
