In Episode 86 of Interview Prep with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna tackle a common but tricky behavioral question: 'Tell me about a time you built a team from scratch or restructured an existing one.' They break down why hiring managers ask this, what a strong answer includes, and walk through a real-world example from a tech startup that scaled from 5 to 40 engineers in eight months. Lucas shares the STAR structure, pitfalls like crediting yourself for luck, and how to frame decisions around skill gaps and culture fit. Luna pushes back on whether 'building a team' always means hiring, and they explore cases where you're inheriting a broken group. By the end, you’ll have a repeatable framework and a specific story template you can adapt to your own experience. #InterviewPrep #BehavioralQuestions #TeamBuilding #STARMethod #HiringManagerInsights #Careers #Leadership #ScalingTeams #JobInterviewTips #RecruitmentStrategy #Management #TechStartup #CultureFit #SkillGaps #BehavioralInterview #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #CareerAdvice Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
