Story4.5 out of 5 stars 14
Conventional interviewing advice doesn’t work. That’s what Anna Papalia learned through years of experience as an HR professional, consultant for Fortune 500 companies, and teacher at the Fox School of Business. None of the existing tools work for one simple reason: they don’t get to the heart of what actually makes a great interview—self-awareness. At its core, an interview is a set of questions about you. If you don’t know yourself, you won’t do well.

Excellent Tools to Interview Well & Land the Job

Anna Papalia's Interviewology book is an excellent, thorough resource that will support readers (in this case, listeners) in identifying useful science-supported tools to adjust how you interview. Ms. Papalia shares her years of experience with readers and outlines both how to recognize specific traits related to each category of interviewer (assuming you are the interviewee) as well as how to approach interviews with authenticity, and vice versa. This book is written for both interviewers to identify their habits and interviewees to do the same. The Interviewology's balanced approach seems to have the goal of ensuring that everyone is the room is prepared to present the best professional version of themself. Each section includes clear guidance and actionable steps that are easily-implemented.
Another review mentioned that this was a book-length advertisement for the Interviewology Profile, and that is not the case. While it is certainly helpful and adds value to this text/audiobook, it is possible to glean pertinent information from this volume. With that said, I do recommend obtaining an Interviewology profile as it significantly improved my experience, identified my secondary style, and enhanced my engagement with the book. The two documents work together, yet function well as standalone tools.
Additionally, the author shares her story, background, and why she is specifically and uniquely qualified to write this book. Ms. Papalia's story is relatable and demonstrates her resilience, chutzpah, and determination. Furthermore, the tools outlined in this book (and Profile, if you choose to purchase one) are the distillation of decades of experience, education, and teaching made accessible for people who are seeking solid, honest, and accurate professional guidance to improve their interviewing skills.
Needless to say, I highly recommend Interviewology: The New Science of Interviewing by Anna Papalia.
