Each episode focuses on a specific question type or scenario: why 'Tell me about a time you failed' is often a trick question, how to structure a market-sizing case without panicking, or what to say when you don't know the answer. Lucas brings the journalist's instinct for what interviewers are really probing; Luna presses for concrete examples from real candidates who succeeded or bombed. Together they reconstruct actual interview loops — from the initial phone screen to the partner round — analyzing the logic behind each question and how to prepare a narrative that is both honest and compelling. They also address the less-discussed aspects: how to handle curveball questions, when to ask your own questions, and how to follow up after a rejection. This is not a pep talk or a list of canned responses; it is a tactical guide for the listener who wants to walk into any interview with clarity, composure, and a strategy grounded in real feedback from decision-makers.

Lucas and Luna break down why this question trips up even experienced candidates and offer a concrete framework called the 'Three-Layer Negotiation' to structure your answer. They walk through a real-world example of a marketing manager who negotiated a vendor contract extension with better terms, showing how to layer in compensation, relationship, and process. Learn how to avoid the common trap of telling a story where you 'won' at the other party's expense, and instead demonstrate strategic thinking. Plus, a quick note on how listener support keeps the show ad-free. #Negotiation #BehavioralInterview #InterviewTips #CareerAdvice #JobSearch #SalaryNegotiation #HiringManager #InterviewPrep #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Careers #ProfessionalDevelopment #SoftSkills #NegotiationSkills #JobInterview #InterviewQuestions #CareerGrowth #CommunicationSkills Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"Interview Prep with Fexingo tackles one of the most dreaded behavioral questions: 'Tell me about a time you negotiated.'
