When it comes to the job interview, candidates can dazzle with words and phrases that demonstrate their
problem-solving skills and value—or they can blunder and slink out of the room, without hope of a call-back.

This flash card deck, complete with 300 cards, provides the smartest answers for job seekers who
want to impress hiring managers and gain an edge in their interviews. The cards anticipate
questions ranging from basic (“What makes you think you can do this job?”) to tricky
(“Tell me about a time you challenged your supervisor”) to illegal (“What’s your
age?”). They provide a sample answer as well as ways to tailor an answer to an
applicant’s specific industry or situation. Even more, each answer highlights the key
term or phrase to commit to memory.

Now job searchers can easily practice right up until the interview so when the time comes,
they can walk into the room, say the right things, and leave a lasting impression.

Corny Raspberry Muffins


It can be crazy around our house in the morning—people are rushing in every
direction, getting dressed, packing backpacks for school, and eating breakfast.
Having healthy muffins on hand is really nice when time is short and you all need
to grab something that is fast and easy to eat. These are better for you—and the
planet—than the drive-through any day!

Ingredients:
• 1½ cups all-purpose flour • ¼ teaspoon salt • Non-stick cooking spray
• ½ cup yellow cornmeal • 1¼ cups plain low-fat yogurt • 1 cup fresh raspberries
• ½ cup packed brown sugar • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil • ½ teaspoon granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder • 1 teaspoon lemon rind, grated
• 1 teaspoon baking soda • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375ºF.

2. Place a large bowl inside an even larger one. This will allow you to catch any spills of your dry ingredients so they aren’t wasted.

3. Measure flour, cornmeal, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add each to the bowl.

4. In a separate bowl, add yogurt and vegetable oil.

5. Use a lemon zester, microplane, or box grater to grate the lemon rind. Watch out—these are sharp!

6. Crack the eggs and add them to a separate small bowl. This will allow you to easily fish out any stray shells.

7. Lightly mix the eggs with a whisk or fork. Add the eggs to the yogurt mixture and stir to combine.

8. Pour the wet mixture to the large bowl of dry ingredients.

9. Stir until just blended. The dough won’t be nice and tender if you mix too much.

13. Bake for 20 minutes or until the muffins spring back when you touch them gently in the center.

14. Remove them from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes in the pan.

from the prologue


Fresh out of school with a useless degree and eighty grand of
debt, I had no idea what to do next. My parents wanted me to
move home to Minnesota. My college girlfriend wanted me to
propose. My heart didn’t want me to do either. Oh, and just
for good measure, the economy was tanking. I needed a plan.

Simple. I would leave it all behind—the temp jobs, the girlfriend,


the debt. Well, not the debt. That’ll be following me around for
the next two decades. The solution to my situation was to get
behind the wheel and drive. I’d take my parents’ VW Eurovan
on one epic road trip through all forty-eight contiguous states.
That’d get me on track.

It’s quite possible that this trip would be the ballsiest thing
I’d ever do in my life. It’s also quite possible that I had been
drinking when I decided on this “plan.”
