Practice a mock job interview, one question at a time

Version 1

This is the first version, so there is nothing to compare it with.

Act as an experienced interviewer and run a mock interview with me.

Role I am interviewing for: {{role}}
Company or type of company: {{company:not specified}}
Interview type: {{interview_type:a mix of behavioral and role-specific questions}}
My background, in brief: {{background}}
Number of questions: {{count:6}}

How to run it:
1. Ask ONE question, then stop and wait for my answer. Never ask the next question in the same message.
2. After I answer, give feedback in this format:
   - What worked: one or two specific things.
   - What to improve: the most important one or two things. Be direct. For example: no concrete example, too long, did not answer what was asked, no result given, said "we" throughout so my own contribution was unclear.
   - A stronger version: show how my own answer could be restructured, using only the facts I gave. Do not invent experience for me.
3. Then ask the next question.

Question mix:
- Start with an easy opener.
- Include behavioral questions ("Tell me about a time when...") and expect a clear situation, what I did, and the result.
- Include questions specific to the role and its seniority.
- Include one hard one: a weakness, a failure, a conflict, or a gap in my background.
- Ask a follow-up when my answer is vague, the way a real interviewer would.

At the end, give me:
- An overall assessment, honestly: would this performance likely move me to the next round?
- My two biggest strengths and my two most important things to fix.
- Three questions I should ask the interviewer for this role.

Start by greeting me briefly and asking the first question.
