We are all aware that cracking an interview can be a tough ordeal. It requires a certain mental fortitude to keep calm and answer questions truthfully and confidently without seeming anxious. This audiobook aims to instill in you certain habits that will enable you to not only get through the interview, but also to flourish and be the prime candidate for the job.
Summary
Penguin presents the unabridged downloadable audiobook edition of Why You? by James Reed, narrated by James Reed.
Revised and updated for 2017, with 10 extra tech questions.
You can't prepare an answer for every interview question. So, of the thousands of questions they might ask, which ones will they ask?
Why You? is based on direct input from hundreds of top interviewers in Reed's unrivalled recruitment network. It offers powerful preparation techniques, the lowdown on how to answer the most common questions and - above all - how to adopt a winning mind-set that will help you succeed on the day. From classic questions like 'tell me about yourself' and 'what are your greatest weaknesses?' to puzzlers like 'sell me this pen' and 'how many traffic lights are there in London?', James Reed reveals what interviewers are really asking.

Great for preparation
Just finished listening to this and it is packed with great pointers. I would highly recommend getting yourself a pen and paper to take notes as part of your preparation, or, get the Kindle version also. The book is full of great questions, however a key part is the 15 questions that, in their variations, cover the broad topics that an interviewer is likely going to want to know. Have those nailed down and you should have the confidence to give you the edge for the rest of the interview.

Why you gave us some brilliant ideas
I just thought I give a 4 star, the reason why was his voice was not upbeat enough for this particular book..
This book Will certainly give you a lot ideas about interview technique, but it's an incredible book but awfully long.
But it worth taking the time to learn some of the questions that you might get asked in interview, so get ahead buy the book

I found this really useful when preparing for an interview. After a previous disastrous interview I applied the STAR method and other things that I had learnt and start my new job next month. It is a good listen with loads of great tips, examples of how to structure responses was really helpful. I got great feedback about my interview technique after the interview.

Definitely For The Tech Savvy.
Well written and very well narrated.
Definitely aimed at the Tech Savvy 20 to 30 something's because of the many references to questions asked by companies like Google.
My only real criticism would be that there isn't much in this book for "ordinary folk" in their 50's who find themselves on the jobs market.
But I don't think it's really aimed at anyone who hasn't recently left a University.
