I wish I had found out about this book before my recent interview, which
did not go as well as it could have. I'm finding all of the answers to
the 'what could I have done differently?' question I've been obsessing
over since. As a recent graduate from Georgetown University, I've read a
lot of career and interview advice books and this one is by far the
most insightful. The Successful Interview is a must read for anyone who
is looking to build confidence, receive clarity, and get hired.
