My Premium Resume Package: https://jeffsu.gumroad.com/l/premium...
No matter how much you prepare for an interview, you are bound to receive a question or two you haven't prepared for. In situations like these, it's best to rely on a triedandtrue 3 step method: Stall for time, Break the question down into bitesized pieces, and address each segment
In this video I share the hardest interview question I've ever received and how I answered that question. Interestingly, although the interviewer told me after the fact that my answer was NOT what she was looking for, I still passed that round
The reason I passed the interview is very simple: the interviewer knows the question is open to interpretation and therefore has no "correct" answer. More importantly, it's about HOW the interviewee approaches the question that matters
For harder interview questions like this, it's best to tackle it like a traditional consulting case interview question: First buy yourself some time, then break the question down into segments, and finally address this part
