Introduction

I f you're in search of a job because you quit your job, were laid off, are changing careers, a first-time job seeker, recent grad, transitioning military veteran, someone who's returning to the workforce after a long absence or employed but looking for your next dream job; you're not alone in this journey and there's no cause for shame. You're among the ranks of millions of people each month (not each year; each month!) who are in search of a new job.

In the January 2016 Job Openings and Labor Turnover report by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), 2.8 million Americans quit their jobs across US government and private sectors over that single month of January. In April 2016, 2.8 million Americans quit their jobs; and in July 2016, 3 million Americans quit their jobs.

This BLS report is just a sampling of the fact that people are job-searching, leaving their jobs, job-hopping and changing their careers by the droves each month of the year. These figures include only those people who voluntarily quit their jobs, not people who left their jobs through retirement or involuntarily through layoffs or being fired from their jobs. That's a lot of people. That's also a lot of competition.

Their story is your story. That's why you're reading a book about job interviews. Obviously, interviewing for a job isn't the only activity of the job search process. You have to carefully prepare your resume; there's the job search until you find the job that interests you; then there is communication that takes place between you and a company or staffing agency recruiter; you have to negotiate what hourly rate or annual salary you want for the job; and finally there's the all-important job interview.

If you're asking yourself, "Shouldn't I be reading a book about all these other job-hunting steps first before reading a book about the last step in the job search processjob interviews?" Yes, you should. If you haven't covered these other areas of the job search process that must happen before the job interview, then allow me to introduce you to my other book that covers all of these areas in great detail: Job Hunting Ninja Master 2017 .

If you've already covered these other areas, then YOU'RE HIRED! is all you need to seal the deal in your next job interview.

In YOU'RE HIRED! , I'll cover where to locate jobs both in the US and overseas, and provide you plenty of websites where you can search for and apply for these positions. We'll look at your competition in the entire private and public sector workforces as you job-hunt and interview for jobs. I'll also cover the company and staffing agency recruiters who will most likely be ones who will set up your job interview for you.

The remainder of this book will show you how to have an Oscar-winning performance in your next job interview. This book will take you step-by-step through everything you need to know and do before, during and after the job interview process to make you stand out above all the other job-hunting candidates and get YOU selected for the job. The hiring manager will say to you, " YOU'RE HIRED! "
