Episode 26 of Interview Prep with Fexingo tackles the open-ended problem-solving question that stumps many candidates. Lucas and Luna break down a real case from a product manager interview at a logistics startup, showing how to structure your answer using a four-step framework: Clarify, Frame, Analyze, Recommend. They discuss common pitfalls like jumping to solutions too fast or getting lost in the weeds, and they share a specific technique—asking 'What metric matters most?'—to keep your response focused. Drawing on research from McKinsey and Google, the hosts explain why interviewers value process over perfect answers and how to demonstrate structured thinking under pressure. If you've ever been asked 'How would you solve...' and felt your mind go blank, this episode gives you a repeatable method. Plus, a light-touch moment on listener support that keeps the show ad-free.
