How to Talk About Your Failures in a Job Interview

In this episode of Career Confidence, Lucas and Luna tackle a high-stakes moment: when a job interviewer asks about your biggest failure. Drawing on a 2025 study from the Journal of Applied Psychology that found candidates who frame failures as learning experiences receive 40% higher 'hireability' ratings, they break down the specific structure of a good failure story — context, action, lesson, application. Lucas shares a concrete template called the 'failure-to-framework' method, and Luna offers a real example from her own career about a botched product launch. They also discuss why avoiding the question entirely is worse than a poorly told failure. No platitudes, just a practical playbook for turning your worst moments into your best answers. #JobInterview #Failure #InterviewTips #CareerAdvice #ImposterSyndrome #SelfPromotion #JobSearch #InterviewPrep #Learning #GrowthMindset #CareerConfidence #Fexingo #Fexperts #CareerPodcast #ProfessionalDevelopment #Hiring #Resilience #VulnerabilityAtWork Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
