The One Question That Reveals Everything in an Interview
Season 1
Episode 2
Published 1 month, 4 weeks ago
Description
Episode 2 of Interview Prep with Fexingo. Lucas and Luna dissect a single behavioral question — 'Tell me about a time you failed' — and show how candidates consistently blow it. Lucas shares a real case from a McKinsey consulting interview where a candidate turned a genuine failure into a lesson about system design. Luna brings data from a 2025 survey of 400 hiring managers at Fortune 500 companies: 68% said failure responses are the most revealing part of any interview. They walk through a specific framework (the STAR method adapted for failure), give exact language do's and don'ts, and end with a forward-looking question about how AI will change behavioral interviews. No fluff. One concrete skill per episode.
