Review :
"We've all snatched defeat from the jaws of victory when flubbing a job interview. That's because when we don't rise to the occasion, we sink to the level of our preparation. No more. This is the best book I've seen to prepare thoroughly for any interview, and set yourself up for success." -- Michael Bungay Stanier (author of the WSJ bestseller The Coaching Habit) "Many people are reactive in their careers and let inertia drive their path. At RevelOne, we've seen that the most successful executives are introspective about the types of skills they bring and proactively identify the companies where they can have the most impact. Ask Me This Instead gives candidates a blueprint for this type of thinking and will ultimately help them achieve their near and long-term career goals." -- Gary Calega (Co-Founder, RevelOne) "Having spent plenty of time on both sides of the interview table, I love that Kendra is so methodically addressing this incredibly important, massively under-discussed topic. A job candidate that fails to ask the critical questions in this book misses an enormous opportunity to peer into the future and predict the likelihood of a strong, long term employee-employer fit. What good is a job offer for the wrong job?" -- Tom Hammer (VC People Advisor; Former Head of People, Bird)
