About this title

From the Back Cover:

"So often those we interview are strangers to us, and we to them. Thus does one begin to appreciate the importance of Arnold Kanter's excellent new book. In it, he strips away outdated interview practices and then presents a clear blueprint that will help everyone achieve the desired result."

-- Harry J. Pearce, executive vice president, General Motors

"Arnie Kanter has succeeded in disarming the interview confrontation by defining the mutual needs and expectations of the parties in a whole new way. Just the idea that one book could be written for two sides destroys the premise that interviewing is best recognized as an adversarial situation. Arnie is to interviewing what Dolly Levi is to matchmaking."

-- Terrence R. Connelly, managing director, Salomon Brothers, Inc.
