Comments About the Book
Your book ... is, in my opinion, the ultimate book on interviewing! You did a magnificent job with it, integrating wonderful tips and insights, great ideas for planning and experiencing an interview and it is as current as can be, with on-the-make reference sites and groups. I am honored to be part of what I think is a hallmark book, since in the 26 years I have been coaching executives as well as teaching others how to do the same, no book compares.-- Executive Career Coach Judy Rosemarin of Sense-Able Strategies.
During the economic crisis, executive-level employees often face a longer interview process and a more intense vetting process. This book helps those execs distinguish themselves.
