The Perfect Interview: Outshine the Competition at Your Job Interview! (Get a Job!)

HR Director and "The Perfect Resume" author Dan Quillen shows readers how to prepare for and conduct the perfect interview for job seekers in any field!

This is the follow-on book to the author's "The Perfect Resume" book (Spring 2014). Once again, Quillen calls on his expertise as an HR professional (and as one who lost and found a job in the toughest economic environment since the Great Depression) to help his readers understand the New Economy, and how to find work when many cannot. He addresses the things readers need to do to secure an interview, and they will learn the key elements that will put them at the head of the pack of candidates. Chapters include what kinds of questions to expect, including atypical and 'surprise' questions; how to prepare beforehand; how to dress for the big day; things that can ruin an interview; why readers may be getting interviews but not jobs; considerations for recent college grads; how to stay positive; and much more!

Dan Quillen is the author of "Get a Job!: How I Found a Job when Jobs are Hard to Find – And So Can You" (Fall 2013) and "The Perfect Resume: Resumes That Work in the New Economy." He has been an HR Director for more than 20 years, and knows exactly what hiring managers and directors are looking for in job applicants. His is the quintessential insider advice for anyone looking for a job in these tough economic times. He is also the author of Cold Spring Press's line of genealogy books, including "Secrets of Tracing Your Ancestors" and "Mastering Online Genealogy," among others.
