Cuéntame sobre un momento en el que mentorizaste a alguien.

Question

Accepted Answer

Esto demuestra que puedes **desarrollar a otros**, no solo a ti mismo. Las respuestas sólidas se enfocan en el progreso de la otra persona y tu enfoque deliberado — enseñar, no hacerlo por ellos.

## Cómo abordarlo

```text
1. Meet them where they are — assess their actual level
2. Teach the approach, don't just hand over answers
3. Give safe room to try, fail, and retry
4. Measure success by their growth, not your effort
```

## Ejemplo trabajado

```text
S: A new junior was struggling with debugging and kept getting stuck.
T: I wanted him independent, not dependent on me.
A: Instead of fixing his bugs, I pair-debugged and narrated my thought process,
   then had him drive while I asked guiding questions. I gave progressively
   harder tasks.
R: Within two months he was resolving issues on his own and started mentoring
   the next hire.
```

## Bueno vs débil

```text
✓ Focus on their growth + teaching the method
✗ "I just fixed everything for them"
✗ Making it about how helpful you were
```

## Por qué es importante

La mentoría multiplica tu impacto — elevas el nivel de todo el equipo, no solo entregar tu propio trabajo.

Enseñar cómo pensar (no solo qué escribir) crea ingenieros independientes, que es el objetivo real.

La capacidad de desarrollar a otros es una señal clave para roles senior y de liderazgo.
