Author’s Message
Dear Reader,
I am so excited for you to read this book! You have no idea how
much better your interview answers are about to be, and how much
confidence you’ll gain from this training and preparing yourself for
your job interview. It’s going to be great!
Please Note:
I have included a BONUS Report at the back of this book.
Do yourself a huge favor and check it out.
In this report, I tell you about a job interview miracle tool that I
once used to get 5 job offers in one search, and that as a recruiter, I
insisted my candidates use (even if I could guarantee them a posi-
tive and receptive interviewer).
I’ve seen this tool get job seekers:
Job Offers within Minutes of the Interview
Job Offers for More Senior Roles at Higher Salaries Than
What They Interviewed For
Read the report, and you’ll see why this tool is so amazing.
Enjoy!

Peggy McKee is an expert resource and dedicated advocate for
job seekers. As an executive recruiter, a career coach, and CEO of

Originally from Oklahoma, Peggy
grew up on a 1000-acre ranch. She
earned a B.S. in Chemistry and an
M.B.A. in Marketing from the Univer-
sity of Oklahoma, and went on to
great achievements in medical sales.
Eventually, she moved to her adopted
state of Texas, where she lives with her
husband and two children. She’s still a
cowgirl at heart and loves ranch work, trail riding, and her favorite
horse, Lucky.
In 1999 Peggy founded PHC Consulting, a nationally successful
medical sales recruiting firm. When she consistently found herself
offering advice to jobseekers who weren’t even her own candidates,
she developed a new business model in order to offer personalized
career coaching as well as the tools jobseekers need to thrive and
succeed in the job search…and Career Confidential was born.
Today, Career Confidential offers more than 100 products,
tools, videos and webinars for job seekers. Peggy receives positive

tribute to their success.
