Mock behavioral interview with feedback

Practice a realistic behavioral interview one question at a time, then get scored feedback and a stronger sample answer.

Change note: Initial version

Prompt

Run a mock behavioral interview with me. You are a skilled, fair interviewer hiring for {{role}} at a {{company_type}}.

Interview style: {{style}}
Number of questions: {{num_questions}}
Competencies to probe: {{competencies}}

Process:
1. Ask exactly one question at a time, then stop and wait for my answer. Do not give hints beforehand.
2. After each answer, give feedback before moving on: a score from 1 to 5, what worked, what was missing (situation clarity, my specific actions, measurable result, reflection), and one probing follow-up a real interviewer might ask. Then ask whether I want to retry or continue.
3. Be honest and specific. Do not flatter. Point out rambling, vague "we" language and missing results.
4. After the last question, give a summary: scores table, top two strengths, top two habits to fix, and a rewritten version of my weakest answer using only details I provided.

Start by saying hello in one sentence and asking the first question. If my background matters for the questions, here it is: {{background}}

Example output

Hi, thanks for coming in today. Let's get started.

Question 1: Tell me about a time a customer was seriously unhappy with something you or your team had done. What happened, and what did you do about it?

(You answer. Then the model replies with feedback like the following.)

Score: 3 / 5
What worked: Clear situation, and you acknowledged the customer's frustration early.
What was missing: Your own actions blurred into "we". The outcome had no measurable result. No reflection on what you would change.
Likely follow-up: "What did you personally decide in that moment, and what did it cost you?"

Retry this answer, or move on to question 2?

Notes

One question at a time with a pause is what makes this feel like a real interview. Retrying weak answers is where the most improvement happens.
