Excerpt from: How to Turn an Interview into a Job by Jeffrey G. Allen
Introduction
I've spent my entire career in the job placement field, and it all comes down to this:
1. A personal interview is inevitable.
2. A personal interview is almost all that counts.
3. A personal interview is a highly predictable, controllable event, with only the places and faces changing.
Everything else -- research, phone calls, letters, resumes -- is simply backup for that crucial meeting.
Interviewing should be considered as nothing more than packaging yourself for sale. The only difference between selling yourself and selling something else is that you are both the goods and the salesperson. In this sense, the interviewing process is unique and your success can be really exciting. It can also be intimidating. You may feel frustrated right now, but this book will give you the confidence you need -- and much more.
A successful interview is deceptively simple: the minute, almost imperceptible nuances make the difference. You can control these nuances through specific, proven, easy-to-learn techniques.
