    Thank you Dan for these videos! Preparing for upcoming interviews and binge watching your posts! I like the breakdown and the "not so good" and "better" examples and why (yay for costume changes :D 👔) This is super useful to help us make the most out of these dreaded questions. Hope you get lots of traffic on your posts!

    I think preparing for a behavioral interview to weed out people is an oxymoron. If you had to prepare as if studying for an exam it's really not your true self. star method is redundant answering the failure question in it's completion requires context, action, result and conclusion. If it's not it's just a run in sentence. God I hate Amazon's approach to hiring lol

      True. They expect mind blowing answer. However, not everyone will have that in their career. This format then forces me to lie about a situation which doesn't make sense.
