In this book, applicants discuss their experiences and perspectives from being on the receiving side of interviewers’ cultural misunderstandings and bias. This book discusses how interviewers’ expectations may not be met due to cultural misunderstandings. The information in this book is based on the author's experience and research. All quotes and stories are from real people and situations gathered from the author’s firsthand research. The author did not edit out or paper over the differences in the sometimes messy and partially contradictory quotes. This quality of the quotes models the very issue the author is writing about.

Employment Interviewing: Diverse Applicants Speak Out—Structure and Style of the Interview Process and Questions

This is the third book in this three-book series. This book jumps in and integrates the aspect of diversity into the practices of interviewing and hiring. This book focuses on questions that are asked during the interview, how they are asked, and applicants’ perspectives on interviewers’ effectiveness in gaining the information they need. It emphasizes structural-institutional diversity issues as well as individual behaviors. Since it is often hard to separate what is related to diversity and what is related to interviewing skills, the quotes that the author selected for this book strongly illuminate many issues of interviewing, not just diversity issues.
