The layout is helpful and makes it easy to find your way round the book, with key issues summarised at the end of sections. The whole book is very easy to browse through and pick up information fast.

I liked the option of a "Fast Track approach: how to use this book if you have an interview tomorrow"! Also the 201 questions and practical approaches to answering them. Altogether, a very useful find.

How many times have you been in a job interview and had those tricky questions like "what are your strengths?" and worse, "what are your weaknesses?".

In short, there are no right answers to these questions, just answers that are right for you. John Lees helps the reader to work out what those right answers should be. And perhaps more importantly, there are wrong answers to many of these questions. Again, John helps the reader to avoid giving answers that harm his/her chances of success.

As well as this, there is a short section dealing with 'wrong questions' - how to respond to questions that are probably illegal, such as around gender or race.

All in all, another winner from John Lees. If you are job-searching now, or expect to be job-searching, get this book.

In an ever-moving 'Career World' this book is invaluable. No two interviews are alike and preparation is the tool to success. The contents of this book help you to discover what options there are to answering questions well at interviews. Thank you John.
