[David · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book was a fast read and covered some great questions to ask and prepare answers for being asked. One major disappointment in the book is that it only covers For Profit businesses. I hoped it would cover some tips for applying at a Non Profit organization. I would recommend checking this book out for anyone wanting to sharpen their question preparation for a job search or even a company review.

Great resource, especially the questions to ask the interviewer and the follow up thank you letters. I'm keeping this one around as a reference.

Quick read. Gives you ideas to think about. A little boring.
