My interview answers were long, light on data, and I'd end up describing what happened without explaining why any of it mattered. I wanted someone who'd actually tell me what was wrong rather than just say it sounded fine. Fernando went through my stories properly - not a quick skim, but line by line. He'd point out exactly where something was vague, where a number was missing, and where I was describing an action without the reasoning behind it. What I liked most was that he actually listens. He takes in the full context of a situation and thinks it through, rather than applying a standard template. And he was direct - if something wasn't working he said so, which is what made it useful. The way I talk about my work changed completely. I now lead with business context so people understand the stakes, back things up with real numbers instead of vague claims, and explain the trade-offs behind decisions rather than presenting everything as a clean win. That's not just an interview skill - it's changed how I communicate technical work generally. And it paid off directly: I've since moved into a role in autonomous vehicles, which is the field I'd been working toward.” Read more Show less
