Acknowledgements I would like to thank all of my colleagues and clients at The CV Centre, both present and past. Without them it would clearly not have been possi- ble for me to write The Interview Book. In particular, I would like to thank Susan Staley, who has closely supported me in the production of this book. I would also like to thank Linda Savill, Katy Wilson and Amanda Jackson. I would additionally like to thank Richard Day at Beaufort Web Design for his significant contribution to the online elements of this book. Special thanks also go to the team at Pearson, in particular Samantha Jackson, Caroline Jordan and Daniel Culver. I couldn't have had better publishers behind me. Assistance in checking and correcting the text was also provided by Don Elkins, Elisabeth Elkins, Malcolm Innes and Michael Staley. Finally, I would like to thank Delphine Vaucanson for her love and support and her toleration of my frequently working very excessively long hours! viii
