The Art of the Job Interview

The Art of the Job Interview requires you to prepare, focus and do something unnatural for most humans. Interviewing is a highly stressful activity that both the person being interviewed and the person(s) doing the interview don't particularly want to do. Getting an interview is challenging enough; succeeding at the interview and getting a job offer is much more difficult. How you interview can have a dramatic effect on the trajectory of your career.
