The Interview Artist: Dealing With Bias and Getting the Job of Your Dreams

As you embark on the journey through this book “The Interview Artist", it's important to ground our discussions in the stark reality of today's job market. A survey by Glassdoor illuminates a challenging aspect: on average, a corporate job opening attracts 250 resumes. Yet, only about four to six candidates out of these hundreds make it to the interview stage. This statistic not only underscores the competitiveness of job seeking but also highlights a crucial point of reflection for both interviewers and interviewees.
 
This book is written with a deep understanding of the emotional and practical challenges faced by job seekers in this highly competitive environment. Recognizing the sheer volume of applicants for each role, we venture into the psychological and practical aspects of navigating this landscape. More importantly, we focus on a less talked about, yet significant element of the job market – interviewer preference bias.
