Build a STAR Story Bank From Real Experiences and Flag Missing Result Numbers

Turn rough notes about real experiences into STAR cards for interview practice. Where a result has no number, the card says so and asks you questions instead of making a figure up.

Your prompt

Turn my real experiences into a bank of STAR story notes for {{target_role}}. Use only what I write below and invent nothing, including names, dates, numbers and outcomes.

My experiences, as rough notes: {{experiences}}

For each experience, write a card with four parts. Situation: the context, in one or two sentences. Task: what I was responsible for. Action: the steps I personally took; if my notes say 'we', ask what my part was. Result: what happened and what I learned. Make Action the longest part.
If my notes give no result or no number, write RESULT NUMBER MISSING and ask me two questions that could help me find a true figure, such as a count, a time saved or a before-and-after comparison. If no figure exists, say so and suggest a plain description instead.
Add 'Could answer questions about:' with up to three themes from my notes. At the end, list common interview themes that none of my stories cover. Do not turn the cards into polished speeches.
