Hi Everyone! I know I have covered this topic a lot, but this video breaks down the three critical components of how to structure your open-ended answers. I hope it helps, thanks!

Do you provide one or multiple solutions?

@AmburrrrKC, ideally, yes! The goal is to make it conversational, after your first solution you try to draw your interviewer in for more by saying "we could dive deeper into x or move onto y, what do you prefer?" It is necessary to have a strong transition statement to be able to provide more solutions.

Jeff, Love your videos. I think this is the best content out there to prepare for Google interviews. I work at AWS and am prepping for a Google interview and am constantly watching/listening to your video. There's one confusion I have though - when to use the CFS method vs. when to use the STAR method. E.g. How do you make decisions? I can use the CFS method and consider a hypothetical project, but I can also share from my past experience. Should I just clarify from the interviewer if they would like me to consider a hypothetical project or from my past experience?

Monday Blues, thank you for the positive feedback. When you do not get a question that asks for an example, really focus on using CFAS, good luck!

This is a great video. It is a real capstone to all your videos so far. I am transitioning to TPM and SA for my 3rd career. Your videos have really helped me prep for these roles. Sent you a LI invite. Hope to say Hi and Thank you offline. Thank you Jeff!

Robert, YES! I love the word capstone, amazing. I am really glad you felt this way. This video is the capstone in the sense that all my clients led me to this very specific methodology for answering these questions. I hope others find it as valuable as you did, thanks!!

Hi Jeff - Quick question. So for process related open ended questions "How would you determine xyz" I feel like all or most of the GHBT RR SSS framework are actually steps for understanding operational components. It seems all are relevant to determine something for example - measuring success. If we shouldn't use all 9, what is the best way to make sure we capture all of the necessary steps without leaving gaps. If I were to just pick two, say Historical data and goals/objectives, I feel that leaves out other compelling factors such as scope/scale, stakeholders, and documenting and tracking success metrics etc.

Shanna, this is definitely a tricky part of delivering the operational framework. Remember you can actually talk about things like the budget and timeline for example when expanding on scope/scale in your solution. My only recommendation is to state a minimum of three items/concepts in your framework. That rule of thee works well! I hope this helps!

Hi Jeff. I've been using your GHBTRRSSS framework with a lot of success, but I was wondering if you could recommend other strategies or frameworks for open-ended questions where the GHBTRRSSS framework just doesn't seem to work? Some examples: - What are some of the methods you utilize for challenging others in a positive way? - How do you influence? Thank you in advance!

I got more from this video than any other video. I learned by watching this, that it's important to build your format/framework vs answering random open ended questions you think you might be asked. Build a framework will be a general format to get you to a solution for these questions.

W mans. i have my Googlyness and leadership interview next week and I'm anticipating these kind of questions. what kind of framework would you use for questions such as "Can you walk me through your problem-solving process when faced with a challenging technical issue?" ?
@jeffhsipepi

dencho, sure! I would use a hybrid approach because I want to consider problem solving and technical items, so I might use a framework like this: Goals Data Requirements Risk Stakeholders Security Scalability Availability Flexibility Automation

@@jeffhsipepi thank you very for providing this framework and for the informative video too. i am guessing that this framework is focused more on the planning/preparation stage of doing a task because that's where problem solving lies primarily?

Chase, great question. So, I like creating bigger frameworks so that when we get an open-ended question we can use all of the concepts or just pick choose a few. So, you are spot on, we don't always need to use or state all the concepts, I like a minimum of 3. Thanks for the great question!

Adnan Haris, great question! When you get a very straightforward technical question, like, how does Netflix work in the Cloud? I still want you to clarify, but for the more straightforward technical questions you can eliminate the framework if you like!
