It's always nice to get another perspective on the process of hiring new employees, and I have found this book to be very helpful. I think the reason it ranks as my favourite interview book is due to the fact that it addresses the three points of hiring, which are:
1. Is the candidate able to do the job?
2. Is the candidate willing to do the job?
3. Is the candidate going to be manageable?
In an age where true references are not really available due to company restrictions on releasing data on employees, a hiring manager really has to figure it out because it is the hiring manager, and not Human Resources, who will be responsible for the outcome. There are many different types of scenarios provided here, along with questions that can be asked to pinpoint if a candidate will fit the role. Although I have done hundreds of interviews as a hiring manager, I always go back to this book for a review and a revamp.
