This skill makes Claude prepare you for a job interview. Give it your resume and a role, and it builds STAR stories from your resume bullets, predicts likely questions, writes a "tell me about yourself" pitch and suggests questions to ask the interviewer. It also gives formulas for hard questions such as weaknesses, leaving a job and salary.

The folder has one file, SKILL.md, and no scripts. The output is a prep document with role analysis, predicted questions, a story bank, an intro script, questions to ask and company research notes.

Good for

Job seekers preparing for a behavioral or role-specific interview
People who need resume bullets turned into STAR stories
Anyone who wants a script for "tell me about yourself" and salary questions

Questions

What does the interview-prep-generator skill do?

It makes Claude build interview prep from your resume and a job description. You get STAR stories, predicted questions, a "tell me about yourself" script and questions to ask the interviewer.

What do I need to give it?

Your resume and, for role-specific prep, the job description or role and company. The README example prompt is "I have an interview at [Company] for [Role]. Here's my resume. Help me prepare."

Does it research the company?

SKILL.md lists company research as a step and has a section for company research notes. It names no search tool, so what Claude can look up depends on your setup. Check any facts it gives about the company.

How do I install it?

Use the install box at the top of this page. The README documents a skills CLI command that installs the whole repo, and the box also has a single-skill command.

Are there related skills in the repo?

Yes, the repo has 22 skill folders for resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn and salary negotiation, though its README says 20. They are optional companions.

Is it safe?

It bundles no scripts. Your resume text goes to the model you use. Our advice: remove details you do not want shared, and treat the sample numbers and salary wording in SKILL.md as examples, not facts about your situation.
