Book excerpt: The most central event determining whether you get a job is the interview. And in interviews, as in most things, practice makes perfect. The Perfect Interview, by human resources expert John Drake, shows you how to practice. It gives you the ideas, the tools and the techniques you need to prepare for every type of interview. Having interviewed hundreds of job applicants, from hourly workers to top level managers, Drake knows that every employment interview ultimately seeks the answers to just two questions: Can you do the job? Will you work well with your colleagues and fit into this company? The Perfect Interview follows the chronological order of the interview process itself; it explains what to do before, during and after an interview. It begins by discussing how to get an interview, including how to answer employment ads, how to write succinct but effective cover letters, how to work with employment agencies and executive search firms, and the advantages and disadvantages of networking.
