Episode description

Fails, mistakes, errors - they are the things we DON’T want to mention in a job interview, but they are interview questions that have been gaining popularity! What on EARTH is your interviewer looking for in this question, and is it a trick?

In this week’s episode Sarah and Emma explain why this question gets asked. We go through all the stories you can use in your answer that you might not have thought about, and give you tips for how to add reflection to your answer.

🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Isaac “You helped me land a new job making $40,000 more than my last job and fully remote! Thank you so much for continuing on!”
