1.2The STAR Framework

Component	Purpose	Common Mistake
Situation	Set the scene. What was the context?	Too long. Keep it to 2-3 sentences.
Task	What was your specific responsibility?	Describing the team's task, not yours.
Action	What did you actually do?	Using "we" instead of "I."
Result	What was the measurable outcome?	No metrics. Vague "it went well."

The total answer should take 2-3 minutes. If you are talking for more than 4 minutes, you are losing the interviewer.
