No Medal for Second Place: How to Finish First in Job Interviews Tom Payne

After giving ten years of seminars and personal counseling on the art of interviewing for a job, author Tom Payne has concluded: Most interviewees are running in the wrong direction. For example, most seminar attendees believe the hiring decision is rationally made, but it is influenced more by emotions than by reason. The hiring authority wants to hire someone they like, someone who makes them feel comfortable. Once we realize the decision is emotionally made our entire approach to interviewing should radically change, and this book shows you how to do this.
