Foreword Reviews BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARDS' WINNER

Unless your job is to interview for jobs, chances are you are rusty and miss some elements of the interviewing game. What if you were to find out that not knowing certain interviewing essentials (or finer details) just cost you THOUSANDS of DOLLARS in a promotion, new job with the same or another employer. If you did, you'd spend a few extra hours on cleaning up your online footprint, organizing your portfolio, learning proper interviewing etiquette, doing a dry run, and taking advantage of many other tricks and strategies of interviewing.

Learn these and many other skills from the Little Silver Book - Interviewing: -Organize your interviewing process -Understand the real expectations of hiring teams -Focus on distinct segments of before, during, and after interview -Use interviewing etiquette and rules to your advantage -Take control of the interviewing experience

This book is packed with over one hundred tips that cover just about everything you need to know to prepare for your interview and improve your chances for a successful outcome. No book or tip sheet can guarantee you a job. Yet, this book is an ally you'd want to have in your collection and use it. Read it all at once rather quickly or just skip to the chapters that are the most relevant to your needs.

"Career changing", "great interviewing tool", "great refresher", and "I got the job" are some of the comments from people who put this book to work. I've spent close to twenty years in the financial services industry and wrote this book because time after time I saw how missing interviewing essentials costs people thousands of dollars in lost job opportunities. Over the last ten years I recruited, on-boarded, trained, developed, and managed over a hundred professionals. So, I can say with confidence that I know a thing or two about interviewing. My goals is to help you in your interviewing efforts. Good luck with your next step to a more successful career, and I would love to hear about your successes.
