Prompt
Help me build a strong answer to a behavioral interview question using the STAR method.
The question:
{{question}}
My real experience to draw on (what happened, what I did, how it turned out):
{{experience}}
Please:
- Structure it as **Situation, Task, Action, Result** — brief on context, heavy on MY specific actions and the outcome.
- Keep it concise (roughly 60–90 seconds spoken), in natural first-person language I could actually say out loud — not a scripted monologue.
- Make the result concrete; if I gave a number or outcome, use it.
Use ONLY what actually happened as I described it — don't embellish my role, invent results, or add details I didn't give. If the experience I gave is thin on the "Result" or on what I specifically did, ask me for that rather than filling it in. If my example doesn't really fit the question, tell me and suggest what kind of story would.
