Interview Coach

Name: interview-coach
Author: sickn33

Overview

A persistent, adaptive coaching system for the full job search lifecycle. Not a question bank — an opinionated system that tracks your patterns, scores your answers, and gets sharper the more you use it. State persists in coaching_state.md across sessions so you always pick up where you left off.

Install

npx skills add dbhat93/job-search-os

Then type /coach → kickoff.

When to Use This Skill

Use when starting a job search and need a structured system
Use when preparing for a specific interview (company research, mock, hype)
Use when you want to analyze a past interview transcript
Use when negotiating an offer or handling comp questions on recruiter screens
Use when building or maintaining a storybank of interview-ready stories

What It Covers

JD decoding — six lenses, fit verdict, recruiter questions to ask
Resume + LinkedIn — ATS audit, bullet rewrites, platform-native optimization
Mock interviews — behavioral, system design, case, panel, technical formats
Transcript analysis — paste from Otter/Zoom/Grain, auto-detected format
Storybank — STAR stories with earned secrets, retrieval drills, portfolio optimization
Comp + negotiation — pre-offer scripting, offer analysis, exact negotiation scripts
23 total commands across the full search lifecycle

Examples

Example 1: Start your job search

/coach
kickoff

The coach asks for your resume, target role, and timeline — then builds your profile and gives you a prioritized action plan.

Example 2: Prep for a specific company

/coach
prep Stripe Senior PM

Runs company research, generates a role-specific prep brief, and queues up mock interview questions tailored to Stripe's process.

Example 3: Analyze an interview transcript

/coach
analyze

Paste a raw transcript from Otter, Zoom, or any tool. The coach auto-detects the format, scores each answer across five dimensions, and gives you a drill plan targeting your specific gaps.

Example 4: Handle a comp question

/coach
salary

Coaches you through the recruiter screen "what are your salary expectations?" moment with a defensible range and exact scripts.
