    But what if you're not sure about the next step to take?
    What if you've been out of the job market for more than five years, employed or not?
    What if you've tried over and over again and just can't seem to get a phone call?

    It's tough. This whole interviewing process is a complex, cold, and frustrating experience that most people can't stand. This is exactly the reason I decided to tackle it, systematize it, and bring it to you.

    I'm coming to you with career development tools, interview tips, and job grabbing processes to help you get the interview flow down pat. And don't worry, this is not PhD level confusing tactics (though there are ninja-nuggets of goodness inside).

    * In a job that no longer satisfies you
    * Never had a job before
    * Haven't looked for a new job in over 5 years
    * Are an expert and are looking for 5-10% improvement tips

    I took an experimenter's role when researching this Interview Action series of books. Yes, I made cold-calls to recruiters to get advice. Yes, I applied for positions I was not "qualified" for (and still got the interviews). Yes, I used my years of psychometric testing data and surveys from richardstep.com to refine my approaches.

    And yes, you will get at least 1 big 'ah-ha' from this series of books that will make a difference in your interview mastery skill-set. You just have to be willing to look for it.

    This series of books will help you prepare for, find, get, and win at the interviewing process to make getting your next job that much more attainable. Think of it as personal interview training on your favorite ereader device.

      INTRODUCTION

      If you're looking for a job, you want things to go smoothly, right? You want to do the work it takes to get your name out there and you want some good responses back.

      But what if you're not sure about the next step to take? What if you've been out of the job market for more than five years, employed or not? What if you've tried over and over again and just can't seem to get a phone call?

      Interviewing For A New Job And Confused? 4 Ways To Clear The Fog Inside

      Did you know that the fear of the unknown is a hard thing to beat? This is something that stops most folks from doing the ultimate goals they're interested in. This is the thing that stops most people from going out and trying new things. This is the thing that stops most folks from trying simple, low-risk adventures like new restaurants. Do you always order the fajitas or hamburger?

      The fear of the unknown is something you can easily conquer if you keep the four ways in mind that we'll discuss soon. Clearing that fog of the unknown is something that you can easily handle when you become more mentally prepared in recognizing you are in control of what happens and your ultimate success.

      Unfortunately, you can't make any decisions for anyone else, especially during an interview. Everything else that comes from your side of the table is completely in your control. You will project whatever answers and internal value you want to project. Get these four ways added to your toolbox and make interviews work for you.

      Give Yourself Some Thinking Time

      When you are questioned in an interview, often people feel they need to immediately give a response. Normally, whatever's on the tip-top of their head just comes blurting out. However, there's positive gain from keeping a couple things in mind here.

      You don't have to answer immediately. People like to know that you are thinking about the answers before just spitting them out. Spontaneity is great, but strategic thinking and problem solving tactics need to go on inside of your head first before you can just spit out any old answer.

      I recommend any time there's a question that has a more involved answer that you wait at least six seconds before answering. If this means just keeping a small count in your head after being asked the question, then do it. Give the question some deep consideration, break eye contact for that little bit, and then give it a quick thought.

      Don't let it drag on to 30 seconds, a minute, or anything crazy like that because it just becomes uncomfortable for the interviewer. In order to stop the emotional and immediate reaction type of response, waiting six seconds helps break that reaction and keeps you focused on
