5.0 out of 5 stars A real job-getting book, August 6, 2005

This review is from: 25 Things to Say to the Interviewer to Get the Job You Want (Library Binder) (Audio CD)

I am writing to thank Mr. Hawk for inspiring me, and for giving my brother and me the job getting skills we needed to achieve our goals. His book is a revelation as well as a tool that everyone should have.

Finding a job with a decent salary is a struggle. More people are going to college, and expectations from job candidates are rising. Mr. Hawk is is right; being qualified isnt enough. I listened to his book and was immediately inspiierd to put the information to use. Listening to the book isnt't nearly enough; you have to pay attention and rehearse. Preperation is a must.

My brother just graduated from University of California at Santa Barabara. For the first time in his life, he felt afraid. He feared he would end up waiting on tables. Having spent so much money and time, away from home, on his education, that would' ve been a complete waste.

So, he and I listened to the book, and practiced what we had learned. Step by step, we rehearsed being interviwer and interviewee. This exercise and the brilliant insights paid off immediately. My brother rose above the rest of the applicants, and got a job at one of the most successful technology companies in Silicon Valley, California. Mr. Hawk's book armed my brother with the skills and confidence he needed to stand out, to be noticed from among the rest of the applicants, and to get hired. I used the book to get a full-time job, here, as a resident services coordinatior. I am only 22 years old, and I am in the top 40 percent of UK residents making a good salary. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, Mr.Hawk

Somehow, I wish every one of my students would listen to this book a few times, before they start looking for a job.

Every book should be written like this. True to its promise, packed with great ideas, and useful. Useful not only for getting past interviewers, but also for your career and your life.

I loved the the last chapter. It's the most important attribute anyone should have. I just finished listeneing to it the second time around.

5.0 out of 5 stars Confidence builder, June 18, 2005

Great book! Very insightful and interesting. I had many moments while I was listening when I found myself nodding my head and recognizing things I had done wrong in past interviews. I now feel like I really understand what interviewers are looking for in a job candidate and how to present myself effectively. This book is also packed with information on how to succeed after I land the job. I got such a boost of confidence from this book and I am actually looking forward to my next interview instead of dreading it. The guy really knows what he is talking about--this book is gold!
