301 Best Questions to ask...,
By Jennifer Simpson (Kitchener, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 301 Best Questions to Ask on Your Interview, Second Edition (Paperback)
Very interesting book. I found quite a few interesting questions I can ask. Good ones that really I should be asking for my own information. I always found that recruiters seemed to do a great job of telling me about the job - however they don't always tell me things I should know about performance and how they feel about my chances for the position.

Good questions, but repetitive,
This review is from: 201 Best Questions To Ask On Your Interview (Paperback)
This is overall an excellent book to prepare for an interview or career networking event. The book is loaded with great questions; however, a number of them are VERY similar. For example,One question is: "Can you describe, specifically, how the company navigates/balances work-personal life issues?" Another question states: "Work-life balance is an issue of retention as well as productivity. Can you talk about your own view of how to navigate the tensions between getting the work done and encouraging healthy lives outside the office?" These would count as 2 questions in the 201 questions, but it is really just one. Also, there are quite a few similar questions regarding corporate culture. Ie., can you describe the company's corporate culture or, how would you describe the company's corporate culture? Aside from that, an excellent book!

Simply Amazing! This book got me an offer.,
By A Customer
This review is from: 201 Best Questions To Ask On Your Interview (Paperback)
Your book, 201 Best Questions to Ask On Your Interview got me an offer! A couple of days before my interview my father had suggested I ask the following question during my interview:What's the most important thing I can do to help within the first 90 days of my employment? After I heard this question, I thought, wow! What a great question to ask. My father had apparently spoken with you a few days before my interview and had relayed this question to me from you to ask (say that 3 times fast). I had learned from my father that you had actually written books on the topic of interviews and questions to ask, so I immediately ran to the store to pick up a copy. I picked up a copy of your book on a Tuesday late evening and had read it from front to back 3 times before my interview on Thursday morning. I am strongly convinced that your book got me an offer! Thank you. I have been on many interviews throughout my short time in the workforce and had never felt as comfortable as I did in my last interview after reading your book. I was amazed to hear hiring managers and human resource representatives respond to the questions I asked them. Their responses were nearly identical to the responses you stated in your book. Again, thank you for a great book and the job offer. I may have been able to pull it off without reading your book, but I'm convinced (especially in today's market) that your questions placed me at the top of the pile.
