NO ONE'S READY FOR THIS INTERVIEW QUESTION! HOW TO HANDLE THE HARDEST INTERVIEW QUESTION. In this video, I tackle one of the most uncomfortable and unexpected questions that can come up in job interviews or even casual conversations: “What’s the most dishonest thing you’ve ever done?” It’s a question that catches a lot of people off guard—not because they don’t have an answer, but because it demands vulnerability and forces you to navigate a delicate balance between honesty and perception. It’s direct, it’s awkward, and it can be surprisingly tricky to answer without falling into a trap. That’s exactly why I wanted to explore it in more detail. This isn’t one of the typical interview questions you hear about all the time, but when it does come up, it has a way of stopping you in your tracks. In the video, I unpack the nature of this type of question, how it relates to others like “What’s your greatest weakness?”, and what makes these questions so challenging to respond to thoughtfully and strategically. I’ve never discussed this topic on my channel before, even after years of making content. So in this episode, I’m diving in for the first time and offering a breakdown of how to think about questions that are designed to make you uncomfortable. If you’ve ever been in a situation where someone asked you something brutally direct—or if you just want to be ready in case it happens—this is for you.
