Description

When most prospective hires come well prepared for interview questions we all expect, how do you distinguish their answers from any other applicant?With this book by your side, you will no longer have to do your best guess work on what answers are genuine, which are rehearsed, and which will end up not reflecting the employee in the least. This invaluable resource shows you how to dig deeper using competency-based behavioral interviewing methods to uncover truly relevant and useful information.Complete with advice on evaluating answers and assessing cultural fit, the second edition of High- Impact Interview Questions features dozens of all-new questions designed to gauge:accountability,assertiveness,attention to detail,judgment,follow- through,risk-taking, and more.When the candidate is asked to describe specific, job-related situations, you will gain a clearer picture of past behaviors--and more accurately predict future performance. By the end of an interview, the real person behind the résumé will be revealed and you will be able to make an offer based on accurate findings, not hopeful hunches. Read more

  • I’ve gotten a copy for everyone I’ve trained to conduct interviews
It’s beyond useful when delivering Behavioral Based Interviewing. You don’t have to reinvent the wheel by coming up with “fit” questions for your company or the position. There are so many, I can’t imagine needing more than 700+ questions. I’ve been interviewing people for the past 20 years and always use this technique. ... show more

  • This is a wonderful tool.
I bought this expecting to help me in the possible case of being on the job hunt again but as my unit is looking to grow, it was very enlightening to help be on the interviewer side of the table. This is a great tool to ensure getting better than simply "cookie cutter" answers to the age-old cookie cutter questions! ... show more

  • Behavior type questions seem to be very popular during interviews ...
Behavior type questions seem to be very popular during interviews these days. I was asked several when I was hired at my current job in IT last year and we asked them when recently interviewing candidates for another position where I work. The book is organized by qualities you want to focus on. As an interviewee I would go through the job description of any position I was applying for and pick out the qualities that seemed to be inherent in each of the job requirements. I would then go through the questions in the book dealing with those qualities and answer them based on my experience. As an interviewer I did the same thing, tailoring the questions to the experience of the person we were interviewing. A lot of these questions are available on the web but having it all in a book, organized by subject makes the small cost of the book well worth it in my opinion. ... show more

  • A wonderful primer on competencies and behavioral-based questions
We have experimented with various approaches when it comes to assessing applicants during a screening call or an on-site interview. Since traditional and situational questions were apparently broken, our successful experiments revolved around behavioral-based questions. Coming up with specific examples is tough and time-consuming. The book provides a comprehensive list and helps determining competencies on a global and individual level. ... show more

  • Great book
I used it for all of my interviews and I used it in my interviews as a starting point and I think it helped. I would not use the question verbatim I would just use it to give yourself a place to get your mind stimulated. You will find that the potential employer will have already answered most of these questions by the time you get around to asking them - so use it as a mind stimulator. ... show more

  • Repetitive but informing
I found myself skipping sentences because she was repeating what has already been said (seriously a pet peeve of mine; unsure if the perspective was to repeat repeat and maybe it will sink in). Otherwise, helpful for me as my department looks to change our interview questions and style.

I usually often fall in some all traditional interview questions, taht came up sometime might not even relevant with topic we need to know from a candidate.
