How to Run

Setup

Tell the user: "I'll ask you questions one at a time. Answer as if you're in the real interview. After each answer, I'll give brief feedback. At the end, I'll give a full assessment."

During the Interview

• Ask 5-7 questions, one at a time
• Mix behavioral + role-specific + curveball
• Start easy, escalate difficulty
• Include at least one question the candidate is likely weak on
• Ask follow-ups like a real interviewer would

After Each Answer

Give brief feedback (2-3 sentences):

• What worked
• What to adjust
• Rating: Strong / Good / Needs Work

Output Format (Final Assessment)

If Something Goes Wrong

• User gives very short answers: Prompt like a real interviewer — "Can you tell me more about...?" Push for specifics.
• User goes over 2 minutes on an answer: Flag it — "That ran long. In a real interview, aim for 90 seconds."
• No company framework found: Use general behavioral format. Note it.

After Output

• "Want another round? Just say 'let's do another mock'"
• "Want to refine a specific answer? 'Help me improve my answer to [question]'"
• "Feeling ready? Review your full prep at /interview-prep"

Rules

• Be a realistic interviewer — not too easy, not hostile
• Follow up when answers are vague (real interviewers do this)
• Give honest feedback — "that was great" only when it actually was
• Reference the candidate's prepared stories when they miss opportunities
