Review

  • "Finally! A practical guide to the interview process. Preparation, process & follow-up tips that are easy to follow. An easy-to-read book filled with common sense rules to help land the job!" -Dr. Colleen Bowman, Provost, Navajo Technical University
  • "The book has a very good insight of what to expect for your upcoming interview. It's very detailed of what the interview committee would ask an applicant." -Yolanda Begay, Financial Aid Technician
  • "Students can trust to have an excellent book to guide them through their first job interview. It's a quick, simple, easy guide." -April Chischilly, MBA, Business Professor
  • "Just follow the tips that Christine spreads all over the book and the next interview will be extremely easy! She gives a good idea of all the type of interviews, situations, questions, and possible answers to GET THAT JOB! Really suggested." -Giovanni Antonelli
  • "Being a Master Technical Instructor for Culinary Arts and a certified Executive Chef and a member of the American Academy of Chefs with the American Culinary Federation, I have found your book on interviewing a great help for my management classes in having and giving an interview. GREAT JOB!" -Robert L. Witte CEC, CCA, CE, AAC
  • "GET THAT JOB! ACE Your JOB Interview - Every Time! - First Job Interviewing Tips! Job Interview Weaknesses! Key Job Interview Questions! Master Good Interview Skills by Christine Reidhead does exactly what the title suggests. It is quite a short book and the advice comes in bite-sized pieces. Primarily, it is aimed at students applying for their first job or an early job upgrade, but the techniques can be applied by every job applicant. Christine Reidhead is an American with her eye on the United States job market, but her advice is pertinent worldwide. There are lists of things you should do, with reasons, and lists of things you shouldn't. Ditch the calming cigarette before you enter the interview room; your clothes will smell! "With this book, you can be assured of building enough confidence to do well in any kind of interview and land yourself a good job" is a quote from the introduction, but I agree 100%. There are three types of job interviews; face to face, telephone, and video link and each has its own section. The emphasis is on instilling confidence in the interviewee and examples demonstrate the most vital tool - research - the basis that enables you to answer expected questions with a personal slant and field unexpected questions. Can you think of a positive answer to "what is your greatest weakness"? Buy a copy of Christine Reidhead's GET THAT JOB! ACE Your JOB Interview - Every Time! or risk floundering unemployed." - 5 Star Review from READERS' FAVORITE
  • "A 2013 poll indicated that 92% of people get stressed about having a job interview. Your anxiety may be related to your qualifications (or lack thereof), fear that you won't know what to say, being ill-prepared, or perhaps it is just general nervousness. Regardless of what the root of your apprehensions might be, Get That Job is designed to help you to be prepared, confident and ultimately successful. The first of four sections details the three different types of interviews; the standard in-person, telephone and video interviews. The second section deals with the actual process of the interview, including how you should prepare for it and what to do afterwards. The third and fourth sections are perhaps the most interesting, as they list common interview questions and common interviewee mistakes. Although short, this book is replete with very practical tips. For example, "If you are given a swivel chair, you may be tempted to or even absentmindedly swing from side to side." It also explains how to answer some of the simple questions that may stump you, such as when the interviewer asks, "Do you have any questions for me?" Get That Job is a concise guide that will help you to be prepared for your next job interview. If you follow Christine Reidhead's suggestions, you're sure to have a successful interview!" - 5 Star Review from INDIES TODAY
  • "I found this invaluable aid for the average job seeker in planning for an interview." - 5 Star Review from Renaissance Writer

During Christine's professional career, she has used her academics to gain several roles in the field of education, starting in 2011, she began working as an Accountant with Navajo Technical University.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Good Book to Introduce a Young Applicant to the Job Interview Process
Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2019

As a former President and Chief Academic Officer for tribal colleges and universities, I know, through the experience of working with thousands of students, how difficult interviewing for a job can seem. This is a short introduction to how to approach the interviewing process and prepare yourself for an experience that has the possibility of improving your life. A number of instructors at Navajo Technical University, where I was the Provost before I retired, are using this book in their classrooms. I suspect other technical college instructors are using the book for that same purpose. Part of an instructor or professor's job is to prepare their students for what they will face in the marketplace of employment. Students needs to learn how to avoid job interview weaknesses and how to prepare themselves emotionally for the interview. This is a book that is an absolutely useful introduction to what counts the day the student earns their associate or more advanced degree.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good interview tips in a short, to-the-point book
Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2019
Verified Purchase
This book is a very short summary of best practices for interviews. It gives great explanations of what to expect, and of what you need to research ahead of time. I’ve always done research, but I feel much more equipped to do better research now, and to incorporate that research into an interview. While it is geared more toward college students, it had some very helpful tips that applied to older interviewees (such as myself), as well. It gave me great examples of what types of questions to prepare, and how to answer some of the questions that have always tripped me up a bit.

It took a little getting into—the first chapter or so is the normal (though still important) tips that you hear everywhere; but it goes more in-depth pretty quickly when it comes to the interview itself. As a concise explanation of how to interview well, it is great!

5.0 out of 5 stars Useful and Comprehensive Book
Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2019

I used this book in my Applied Writing class as part of the segment I teach about job preparation. Although the text I use for class is great for teaching how to write for the intended audience and it covers resumes, letters of interest, job research, etc. thoroughly, the portion about interviewing is very short and this book fit perfectly for extending my students' knowledge in that area. It offers excellent tips and advice in a clear, concise manner and, when I asked my college students' opinion about requiring this book in upcoming semesters, they strongly agreed that it should be required and that it would be well worth the money. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is preparing for an interview, now or down the road, because the information is timeless and so applicable to every possible interview situation.

This book is getting me through the very first stages of starting my very first recruiter position. I am following each step after reading this book. The steps to taking before the interview are what I am currently working on and it's getting me into the right stages of not making common mistakes and giving me the motivation that I need to get that job. As a student, I really didn't think the before and after didn't really matter but after reading this amazing book I am able to understand completely what steps need to be taken and how I have complete control of what and how my interview goes. Christine Thanks so much for an amazing and awesome book.

This book is a no-fluff guide to excelling in interviews and landing your next job! My favorite section is when Christine breaks down the 3 stages of the interview process and best behaviors for building rapport and securing the position.

With this newfound knowledge, I have been more confident in interviews and my closing rate has doubled. I know if I apply for 20 jobs, I will get at least 10 interviews now as opposed to the 3-4 I was getting beforehand.

I really enjoyed this short and potent book. I believe it would be a valuable resource for college students to get their first job.

Let me start off by saying that I wish I had this book when I was hitting the job market years ago! The book is well written and concise, with little or no fluff. The practical application removes the mystery and terror of the interview processes giving you the tools to win the battle, so to speak. The book nails the subject so well and in such a professional manner I flew through in no time. Cannot recommend it high enough.

I found so many great ideas and insights in this book! I am currently working part-time and like to do more. So more job interviews are probably coming my way and for them I like to be prepared! This book gave me great insights in what to expect and what I can say in these typical interview stages. With this book I feel really confident to go into these settings and know how to survive!

For a concise, comprehensive tour through the process of attending - and passing - a job interview, you will probably never read a better and more useful guide than this one.

It doesn't beat about the bush. Once the informative intro is done the writer gets straight into the meat of what the book is about - how to approach your job interview, the questions to ask, the answers to give, how to comport yourself and common pitfalls to avoid. And yet despite the relative brevity of the work, it goes into a surprising amount of detail. Among other things I was able to spot a number of mistakes that I had made myself in the past, which became straightaway obvious but didn't seem so at the time. There are suggestions for twelve questions to ask of a prospective employer, as well as for ten mistakes to avoid making.

What really impressed me, apart from the clarity of the writing, was that with my interviewer's hat on I was able to recognise the scenarios at play and to concur with the wisdom of the advice being given from the "other side" as it were. The writer clearly has a good deal of first-hand subject knowledge and is blessed with a talent for conveying it clearly and in a way that is easy to understand and follow.

This book is a must for anyone who plans to attend a job interview, whether now or in the future. Not only a first interview, but any interview as it will help the reader to avoid mistakes that may have been made in the past.

As useful a "How to..." guide as you'll ever read.

I have always been terrible at interviews because I feel intimidated and nervous often receiving several rejections from job opportunities I should have got. In my search for information and advice on how to prepare for an interview I came across this gem of a book.
This is a compendious guide to getting you to and through a job interview from face-to-face, telephone and video interviews from how to dress for it and the questions to ask.
This book is helpful for those of you looking for ways to stack the cards in your favour and improve your chances for getting that job.

I bought this book as I'm currently in the midst of starting a new career, and I haven't been to an interview in many years. The writing was very clear, concise and easy to understand. Full of practical pieces of advice useful to people like myself embarking on a new career, but also those looking to climb the ladder and particularly young adults entering the workforce. I'm glad I bought it, worth taking the time to read, particularly if you're contemplating a career change.
