Star Questions

Answer interview questions good
I get to interview a lot of product folks. I’m looking for crisp answers with satisfying endings. For behavioral questions, answers should preferably be in STAR format. Situation task action result. So if I were prepping for an interview I would barf out my answer to common questions in paragraph format and then have chatGPT rearrange the best parts using this prompt. I included at the bottom of the doc.

Use this prompt

Convert the provided narrative into STAR format. Avoid weasel words. Write naturally and concisely.

Situation — set the scene Describe briefly the situation or problem you found yourself in. (2 sentences)

Task — Describe your role or responsibility in this situation (2 sentences)

Action — How you handled the situation. If you’re part of a team, highlight your specific efforts. (2 sentences)

The Text Input

I recently embarked on a really ambitious skunkworks project with three freelance developers to create some really unique 3D art frames. This was no small feat though, as my teammates spoke different languages - French, Portuguese, and Indian - and were responsible for different aspects of the project. Communication was breaking down regularly and I had no idea what our velocity was. Having English as a second language can present many challenges, including difficulty understanding spoken and written English, difficulty expressing oneself in English, and difficulty understanding cultural nuances or slang. It can also be difficult to find accurate translations of words or phrases and to understand the various nuances of English grammar. Additionally, even when one is fluent in English, it can be difficult to communicate with someone who is a native speaker of the language. Non-native English speakers may also struggle with spelling and pronunciation, which can lead to misunderstandings in communication. Finally, non-native English speakers may feel isolated or excluded in conversations with native speakers due to their limited language skills. Development velocity is a measure of how quickly a team can complete a project, taking into account the scope, complexity, and quality of the work. It is calculated by dividing the total number of features or tasks completed in a given period of time by the total amount of time spent on the project. This can help teams set realistic goals and timelines for their projects and help them measure their progress. I knew I needed to find a way to make things more visual, so I decided to lean on my design and video skills to build an entirely visual wiki using Figma, a powerful design software. This way, any changes made to the project could be quickly and easily seen, and I could even record videos and tag each engineer to make sure they were up-to-date. It worked out great, and we were able to release an MVP two sprints earlier than expected! Currently, we have 10 active paying users and have already shipped our second version. I even used the ChatGPT Figma plugin to translate any necessary comments into the native languages of my teammates (which were French, Portuguese, and Indian) so they could easily understand the project requirements. Figma is a powerful design software that enables designers to create high-quality designs quickly and easily. It has a wide range of features and capabilities, including vector-based design tools, collaboration capabilities, and a library of collaborative plugins. Bit.dev is a cloud-based platform for developers, teams, and companies to share, discover, and manage reusable components. With Bit.dev, developers can organize and share their components with others, making it easier to collaborate and build applications faster. Bit.dev also provides a library of components from popular libraries and frameworks, allowing developers to quickly find and use the components they need. Bit.dev also provides a way for developers to version, document, and track the components they share, making it easier for teams to maintain and update the components they use.With Figma, designers can create user interfaces, websites, and mobile applications with ease. It is also used to design diagrams, animations, prototypes, and more. It was really incredible to see the project come to life and be successful - especially considering the cultural and language barriers that exist between India, Portugal, and France. All in all, it was an amazing success and I'm so proud of the work we were able to accomplish!

Output From ChatGPT

Situation: I was leading a skunkworks project with three freelance developers working on 3D art frames. One spoke French, one was Portuguese, and the third was Indian and focused on Python and database work. Timezones prohibited us meeting all together and communication had been breaking down regularly.

Task: I needed to get back on track, so I had to find a way to communicate with the team that would be understood.

Action: Instead of writing more and hoping it was being read, I used my design and video skills to create an entirely visual wiki using Figma and Loom. When changes were needed, I updated the IA/User Flow, recorded a video, and tagged each engineer using the ChatGPT figma integration to translate the text when needed.

Result: We ended up releasing an MVP two sprints earlier than expected. We have 10 active paying users and have shipped V2 in the added time.
