In this episode of Interview Prep with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna tackle one of the trickiest behavioral questions: 'Tell me about a time you gave difficult feedback.' They break down why hiring managers ask this, what they're really looking for, and walk through a specific STAR-method example involving a junior analyst who needed to improve their financial modeling speed. Lucas shares a real-world scenario from his days as a team lead, and Luna offers a counterpoint on how to handle feedback with a peer rather than a direct report. They also discuss common pitfalls like sugarcoating versus being overly blunt, and how to frame negative feedback as a growth opportunity. Whether you're interviewing for a manager role or a senior IC position, this episode gives you a concrete framework to prepare your own example.
