Interview Prep

Generate interview prep tailored to a JD and the candidate's resume.

Setup

Follow ../_shared/setup.md. Then Read the resume file at primaryResumeSourceAbsolutePath for the candidate's full background.

Step 1: Analyze the Role

From the argument, identify: role title + level + team, core technical requirements, domain/industry, key responsibilities, company size/stage, any interview-process hints.

Step 2: Generate Questions

Behavioral (5–7)

Focus on competencies the role requires. For each: question + suggested STAR answer (Situation, Task, Action, Result) using a real example from the resume + the experience to reference.

Example:

**Q: Tell me about a time you led a major migration.**

Suggested answer (STAR):
- Situation: At EmTech Care Labs, the platform was on AWS Amplify Gen 1 with slow builds.
- Task: Lead the migration to Gen 2 and unify the codebase.
- Action: Phased migration, unified TypeScript monorepo, consolidated 3 component libraries into one design system.
- Result: Cut build/deploy time 40%, created 40+ reusable components, improved velocity.

Technical (5–7)

Based on the role's stack and requirements: language/framework, architecture and patterns, technologies listed in the JD. For each: concise answer outline with talking points from the candidate's experience.

System Design (2–3)

Scenarios relevant to the company's product area. For each: outline the approach + which candidate projects demonstrate relevant experience.

Company / Domain (2–3)

Questions about the company's product, industry, competitors. Suggest research areas to explore before the interview.

Step 3: Identify Weak Spots

List requirements where the candidate's experience is thin. Suggest how to frame each gap positively (transferable skills, adjacent experience, quick-learner). Recommend areas to brush up on.

Step 4: Output

Rules

1. Real experience only. Every suggested answer references real projects/roles/metrics. Never fabricate.
2. Tailor to this role. Generic "tell me about yourself" prep is useless.
3. Be honest about gaps. Don't pretend they don't exist.
4. Concise answers. 1–2 minutes spoken, not essays.
5. Probability-order. Most likely questions first in each category.
