Stop Failing Interviews—Use This 3-Step Formula to Succeed

The main reason why you are failing your interviews
The main reason you are failing your interviews is because you are being too honest in the answers.

Let me explain.

When the interviewer asks "Tell me about a time you failed to deliver on a goal?", you share all the gory details of how you completely and miserably failed, in total honesty because you feel that's the right thing to do.

But here's where you make the mistake.

The interviewer is not interested in learning about why you failed to deliver, but instead, they are interested in learning about as a leader, how you saved the day.

So next time when asked to share a story about failure, you this simple 3-step formula to deliver a power-packed answer that wins them over:

1. Share an example of how you failed (25% of answer)
2. Reflect on what you learned from the experience (25% of answer)
3. Share how you used the learning to get a big win (50% of answer)
