Apparently, interviewers ask trick interview questions.
I didn't know this, which may be why I still don't have a good, solid entry-level job. These trick interview questions are questions that can easily undo everything that you have built up so far in the interview. I'm not going to pretend to be able to help you identify and beat these questions, however, I found a book that might be able to do just that. It's called 301 Smart Answers to Tough Interview Questions by Vicky Oliver. I'm not an expert but she is. It's a pretty easy read and, if you're like me and crack in interviews, it's a confidence booster. It's nice to know that there are right and wrong answers to questions and there are also right and wrong questions. I suggest that this book be studied for at least a week before an interview. Hopefully it helps! Good luck!

Good reading before going into an interview. Now, we all know that after the interview we all come up with what we could have, and should have, said. This book makes it easy to answer questions the right way. One theme this book really presses is "never unsell yourself". When given questions where you have the opportunity to show negative qualities, or situations that didn't turn out well, Vicky Oliver gives you ideas on how to work around these questions.
Sometimes interviewers do a poor job, and may ask leading questions that work against EEOC laws. Once again, Oliver has you stay on target and guide your answers to what is job-related. She will often have a question, the good answer, and then ways you can add to the good answer to make it more personal. If you are going on a job interview, this book may be one that you want to browse through simply to get a bit of a refresher. She lays these questions out in non-threatening ways, and gives you strategies on how to work around them. I like the central theme "do not unsell yourself". This insight alone may help you pause long enough to get the right answer out of your mouth before something knocks you out of the potential hire pool.
