Competency-Based Interviews by Robin Kessler


Competency-Based Interviews by Robin Kessler


Master the Tough New Interview Style and Give Them the Answers That Will Win You the Job


Have you ever wondered why you didn’t get a job offer after an important interview?


People interviewing for jobs today often fail because they are using yesterday’s strategies. They haven’t realized that the best employers have changed the way interviews are done, and it now takes a different strategy to succeed. Competency-Based Interviews shows today’s candidates a new, more targeted way to prepare for the tough interviews based on the competencies that the most sophisticated employers are looking for.


Preparing for a competency-based interview will give you the strategy you need to:


  • Be selected for the most competitive positions.
  • Win the best job at a new organization.
  • Get a great first job or internship.
  • Be chosen for that critical promotion in your current organization.
  • Take control of your career path.
  • Increase your salary.
  • Get more interesting assignments and more interesting work


Competency-Based Interviews shows you how to emphasize the knowledge, skills, and abilities that you have and employers need. Most sophisticated U.S. and international employers are using competency-based systems to recruit, interview, and select employees. Corporations such as American Express, Energizer, IBM, Pfizer, and Federal Express are all looking for specific competencies.


Competency-Based Interviews will teach you what you need to master this tough new interview style and give the interviewers the answers they are looking for from their next employee, YOU!
