5.0 out of 5 stars
An effective and well researched career book,
By Chandra Prasad (New Haven, CT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Monster Careers: Interviewing: Master the Moment That Gets You the Job (Mass Market Paperback)
As the author of a recent book on the job market, I was drawn to Monster Careers because of Monster.com's...well, monster reputation in the world of job market resources. The book was a pleasant surprise. Not only did it offer the spectrum of standard interview-conquering exercises and tips one would expect, but it also tackled some of the "softer" issues that can make or break an interviewee: maintaining your confidence level, selling yourself without sounding boastful, establishing a comfortable rapport with the interviewer. This is a great all-around read, and especially helpful for those who need a refresher course on the ins and outs of interviewing.

**LIFE CHANGING BOOK**,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Monster Careers: Interviewing: Master the Moment That Gets You the Job (Mass Market Paperback)
The book "Monster Careers: Interviewing" essentially changed my life (no, I'm not being sarcastic or funnyMonster Careers: Interviewing: Master the Moment That Gets You the Job.) I always had trouble with interviews and with this book I knew what to say, how to say it with confidence and how to take command of the interview so that I directed the questions to the areas I wanted to talk about. With this book I landed my current job and I made it to the top three cadidates for this very high level job (didn't get it, but still, there was nearly a hundred candidates.)
Read this book,learn what it has to say, and win the job. I can't speak highly enough about this book.
