5.0 out of 5 stars Review of 'The Quick Interview and Salary Negotiation Book', November 7, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Quick Interview and Salary Negotiation Book: Dramatically Improve Your Interviewing Skills in Just a Few Hours (Jist's Quick Guides) (Paperback)

Whether a recent college graduate or already employed, this book offers great ideas and easy-to-follow
tips to interviewing and salary negotiation. Over the years, I have used many of the salary negotiation tips
to increase an initial salary offer, as well as obtain company-paid parking and other incentives. This book
is an excellent and valuable gift for recent graduates. This is a great beginners-guide and very helpful
to those who are relatively new in the job market.

This review is from: The Quick Interview and Salary Negotiation Book: Dramatically Improve Your Interviewing Skills in Just a Few Hours (Jist's Quick Guides) (Paperback)

In a readable, engaging style, this book describes the basics of interviewing, including; 1) how to dress; 2)preparation; 3) dealing with questions that you dread; 4) handling inquiries designed to trick you; and 5) organizing your presentation of skills so you can appeal to employers. Print and layout very helpful to people with learning disabilities. A small but helpful portion of the book discusses salary negotiations.
