Some job interview faux pas are obvious.
Showing up late or badmouthing your former employer are almost guaranteed to ruin a first impression.
But there's one sneaky interview mistake that can cost you the job: Forgetting to provide specific examples in your answers.
Holly Lee, a former recruiting leader at Amazon, Meta and Google, says it's "hands down, the number one reason" people tank a job interview.
"Giving vague, clipped answers causes a lack of trust, it shows me that someone is unprepared and doesn't have a deliberate approach to their work."
