Synopsis

This definitive guide to handling the most critical part of the job interview - the first five minutes, emphasizes the importance of physical chemistry, eye contact, vocabulary, and listening versus talking when meeting a prospective employer for the first time. It explains how to prepare yourself before you go on an interview, how to shift the discussion from "maintenance" to more "value added" topics to show how you can meet the employer's strategic goals, and how to identify the employer's "hot buttons" and use them to your advantage. Also included are scores of tips on how to steer and control the interview while it is in progress.

Minute 5:
Instead of fielding questions about your background, you′re already positioning yourself as the ideal candidate to resolve those problems and meet all challenges
