    AMA | The Exact Moment You Lost the Interview

    Every experienced candidate knows this feeling. You’re mid-interview. The conversation is flowing. Then something changes. The energy shifts. Maybe the interviewer leans back. Maybe the follow-up questions stop. Maybe the conversation suddenly gets more serious. Or maybe the opposite happens. It opens up. In this AMA episode, we break down: What candidates unintentionally do when pressure hits How over-rehearsed answers create distance The “failure question” and why it exposes more than you think What happens when you try to recover by selling harder The difference between performance and presence This isn’t interview coaching. It’s a real discussion about awareness, self-regulation, and the subtle behaviors that shape perception in high-stakes conversations. If you’ve ever walked out of an interview wondering, “What just happened in there?” — this episode is for you. 00:00 – The moment the energy changes03:12 – What candidates do when they feel pressure07:40 – The over-rehearsed answer trap12:15 – The “tell me about a failure” question18:20 – Selling harder vs slowing down24:05 – Authenticity under pressure29:10 – What strong candidates do differently If this episode resonated with you, follow the show and share it with someone preparing for their next interview.
