Prompt thread #9: an interview simulator that scores and coaches with STAR
alifcoder · x · 2026-09-16
Entry #9 of alifcoder's job-search prompt thread: an interview simulator. The prompt makes Claude act as an interviewer for your target role, asking one realistic question at a time, scoring each answer out of 10 on clarity, relevance, evidence and confidence, then coaching improvements via the STAR method before moving on, and finishing with your 5 biggest weaknesses plus a practice plan. It also quotes entry #8, a networking message generator producing natural, low-pressure short messages for recruiters, hiring managers, referrals, former colleagues and unanswered follow-ups — never asking strangers directly for a job.
