Reference frameworks (STAR, SBI, CARL), anti-patterns, and standard interviewer follow-ups for behavioral interview prep. Use when extracting STAR stories from user's experience, mapping stories to a specific company or JD, running mock behavioral interviews, rehearsing behavioral story delivery, or debriefing a real behavioral interview.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Behavioral Frameworks

## STAR (Situation, Task, Action, Result)

Primary structure for behavioral answers. Every story should map to exactly one S, T, A, R.

### Situation
The context that made the problem worth solving. Sets stakes without over-explaining.

- Name the product/system/team and its scale (users, dollar impact, team size).
- Surface the constraint or threat that created urgency — why did this matter *now*.
- Keep it to 2-3 sentences; interviewers need orientation, not a history lesson.

**Weak:** "We had a frontend codebase that was getting kind of hard to work with and everyone was writing their own components."

**Strong:** "At Acme, our five frontend teams were duplicating UI components across three apps. QA bounce-backs on UI-heavy features ran at ~40%, and each sprint lost roughly two engineer-days to inconsistent implementations."

### Task
The specific outcome you were accountable for — your mandate, not the team's.

- State *your* ownership explicitly: "I was responsible for…" not "the team needed to…"
- Distinguish your goal from the broader business goal (they can differ).
- Name any constraints: timeline, budget, staffing, political opposition.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add zoolcoder/scoutjobs/behavioral-frameworks@sha256:2550b12908a037a1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261011.1b0ba96, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
