Interviewology

“A must-read for seasoned and new managers alike.” —Johnny C. Taylor Jr., SHRM-SCP, CEO of the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) A groundbreaking guide to mastering the job interview, offering proven interview preparation advice and techniques to discover your unique interview style that is key to interviewing better—for those on either side of the table. Conventional interviewing advice doesn’t work. That’s what Anna Papalia, a veteran career coach, learned through years of experience as an HR professional, consultant for Fortune 500 companies, and teacher at the Fox School of Business. None of the existing tools work for one simple reason: they don’t get to the heart of what actually makes a great interview—self-awareness. At its core, an interview is a set of questions about you. If you don’t know yourself, you won’t do well. Determined to make the hiring process better, more inclusive, and less obscure, Anna spent years researching how people interview and uncovered a new science to interviewing. In Interviewology, you’ll learn: How to determine your interview style, whether you’re a Charmer, a Challenger, an Examiner, or a Harmonizer How your interview style influences how you view, approach, and perform in interviews How to lean into your interview style’s strengths and minimize your weaknesses, so you can nail your next interview Packed with wisdom, Interviewology offers clarity and a dynamic, scientifically validated approach that challenges everything you thought you knew about interviewing, providing unique insight into the process, debunking some of the most common myths, and explaining how you can perform better, whether you’re applying for the job or looking for the right candidate.
