Failing the Job Interview Before You Even Start

The job seeker can find and even be overwhelmed with lots of resources to help build a good resume, how to write a great cover letter, how to dress for success, even how to present yourself in networks and interviews. But, there are very few resources to help us correctly deal with our attitude issues and be ready to successfully interview for our next career opportunity.

This is precisely why I wrote the book, Unemployed: Life in the Wilderness – A Practical Guide for Living with Unemployment. In today’s job search, if we don’t learn to deal with issues of mind and heart we will not be able to achieve our goals of getting a productive job.

My book is not about “how to get a new job” it is about “how to be mentally and spiritually ready to get a new job.”

The interview is a spiritual battleground. We’ve got to overcome things within ourselves before we can overcome unemployment. Human Resource Managers across the board agree that unless you deal with issues of attitude you are failing the interview before you even start.
