5.0 out of 5 stars Liars, look out!, October 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: How to Spot a Liar in a Job Interview (Paperback)

This book stays on my desk while I prepare for interviews from now on. I started using the stuff in it and on the first day I started weeding out potential problems. Every hiring manager should have this!

5.0 out of 5 stars An important tool for anyone interviewing job candidates, September 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: How to Spot a Liar in a Job Interview (Paperback)

This book is full of the inside stuff you need to weed out bad apples from your candidate list. I wish I'd had it 10 years ago; it would have saved me a lot of grief!

Lying applicants really frustrate me. At last I can blow them out of the water.

All areas of detecting false statements are covered in this comprehensive, easy-to-read book. It should be on the desk of every interviewer. It should be on a table in your waiting room to intimidate those applicants about to lie to you!

What else can I say? It's a great book.

5.0 out of 5 stars WIDE RANGE OF HELPFUL TECHNIQUES, July 22, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: How to Spot a Liar in a Job Interview (Paperback)

We have found the techniques in this book to be of great help in our effort to screen out unsuitable candidates. Most applicants tell us they can do the job. With this book we have been able to sort out those who really can.
