 Reed's second book with Penguin Portfolio features examples of interview questions and strategies for answering them, based on research obtained from Reed's network of hirers, recruiters and interviewees.The book's premise is that all interview questions are variations on 15 distinct themes, referred to as "The Fateful Fifteen".Reed encourages candidates to relate all interview questions to these 15 themes, while cautioning against preparing canned answers in advance, arguing that this approach gets in the way of genuine and spontaneous conversation.
