Episode notes
Avoid Thinking Out Loud
- Don't just think out loud when answering case study questions, as it can undermine your polished solution.
- Instead, consolidate your brainstorming and present a refined highlight reel of your thought process.
Rephrase and Confirm
- Rephrase the question back to the interviewer to confirm understanding and buy time to brainstorm.
- This ensures you're both on the same page and gives you a moment to formulate your response.
Ask Limiting Questions
- Ask limiting questions to force the interviewer to set parameters on the broad question.
- This narrows the scope, making it easier to provide a specific, winning answer.
