IT HAS IT ALL!
When you've been in HR for 18 years, you think you know something until you read anything this author has available. I originally started following him on LinkedIn and have excelled in my career since getting my hands on his books. Anything you could think of is there in black and white: what to say, how to say it, when to say it, what to do, and how to do it, from beginning to end. I am so grateful for the work he put into making this easy-to-read, straight-to-the-point series. I have increased my income by multiple tens of thousands of dollars and landed a job with a team of people who share my work ethic and dedication to their careers. I can't thank the author, Alan Collins, enough. He is the GOAT!

I am ready to my next job interview!
I have just finished reading the book. It is a must-read for everyone willing to succeed in a job interview. The author covers absolutely all topics related to preparing the interview, performing it and negotiating your job offer. He also shares relevant tips for those having the interview by phone or video conference.My favorite chapter is #5: "Interviewer Questions, Part 1 - The 10 most frequently asked questions you absolutely must nail... or you're toast." The questions are:Question #1 Tell me about yourselfQuestion #2 Why are you interested in this HR position?Question #3 What is your biggest strength?Question #4 What is your greatest weakness?Question #5 Where do you see yourself three to five years from now?Question #6 Why did you leave (or why are you leaving) that employer?Question #7 In looking over your work history, I'm concerned. Can you explain__________?Question #8 What are your salary expectations?Question #9 What is the most significant project you have led or accomplished in your career?Question #10 What makes you the best fit for this job? Frankly, you seem to have too much (or not enough) experience.What I loved in the book is that the explanations fit all kind of job interview. You can quickly adapt the suggestions for answers to the type of industry and field corresponding to your situation.I really recommend this book and wish you good luck in your next interview.

Love this book
Thank you Mr. Collins tor writing this book. This book is just what I was looking for. Just because an individual may work in HR does not mean that they will excel when they are on the other side of the interview table. The book walked the HR professional from the beginning of the interview process to the end. The book equipped the HR professional with a variety of tools to not only ace the interview but to be able to blow the competition away. I needed the book for an interview that I went on so I expedited shipping and I want to tell you that the interview was supposed to be only an hour, it lasted about two hours. I even received a tour of the facility. My number one favorite tip was how to answer the tell me about yourself question. The second favorite tip for me was what questions to ask during the interview. They were thoughtful, provoking and really allowed me the opportunity to gauge the job, the environment, the fit. I recommend this book to every HR professional. If I could make a recommendation, please write a shortcut book for the 1st time manager.
