Synopsis

Maya Iyer is made redundant in February. By August she has had ten interviews and ten rejections, three of them for jobs she could do in her sleep, and not one person has told her why.

This is a novel about the forty-three minutes before an interview, the four seconds of silence a candidate fills and shouldn't, and the scorecard nobody ever sees. It follows Maya through eleven rooms in Bengaluru — a hiring manager who writes three words and underlines one, a product owner who is rude and right, a panel that spends half its time discovering it cannot agree what the job is — to the afternoon a number finally arrives on a table.

Woven through the story is what selection research actually shows: why structured interviews outperform unstructured ones and by how much, what a rejection can and cannot tell you, and why fluency stopped being worth anything the moment a machine could produce it in three seconds.

At the back are the tools Maya builds along the way — an evidence bank, a question decoder, eight practice simulations and a thirty-day plan — including the version of the method for readers who have run out of savings, time and patience.

For anyone who has walked out of an interview certain it went well, and never heard back.

Volume One of two. Volume Two — The Panel — is told from the other side of the table.
