Now, just a few weeks further along, Volkan has begun filling in the +others sections nicely and the book has reached over 150 pages and there is still +much more work to do. This book will cover every topic surrounding a professional +JavaScript interview, from how to handle technical JavaScript interview questions +to even how to apply for a job and react to a job offer. + +This book provides an intimate and in-depth look into the heart of JavaScript and +the parts that make the language unique from others. As if he felt years of +professional and tried experience were not enough Volkan also offers various +resources and links to related material throughout the book to help support points +he makes, as well as to provide an alternative point of view to the topics he is +covering. So far the references section of the book takes up 5 pages and includes +over 100 unique links, and there are more to come. + +For those who feel that this book is just for those looking how to get a leg up in +a JavaScript interview, please reconsider purchasing the book. It will help you +learn the hidden secrets to make you a better JavaScript developer and an all +around better interviewee. + +If JavaScript Interview Questions +sounds interesting to you then please checkout the +book teaser +for a free lesson on JavaScript Closures and consider pre-ordering the book.
