1

Create a list of behavioral questions

Create a list called questions with these exact behavioral questions as strings: "Tell me about a time you faced a challenge", "Describe a situation where you worked in a team", and "Give an example of how you handled conflict".

Use square brackets to create a list and include the exact question strings inside quotes.

2

Set a practice goal

Create a variable called practice_goal and set it to the number 3 to represent how many questions you want to practice.

AI for Everyone

questions = [
    "Tell me about a time you faced a challenge",
    "Describe a situation where you worked in a team",
    "Give an example of how you handled conflict"
]
# Create the variable practice_goal and set it to 3
# Your code here

Use a simple assignment to create the variable with the number 3.

3

Generate sample answers using AI

Create a dictionary called sample_answers where each key is a question from questions and the value is a sample answer string generated by AI. Use these exact pairs: "Tell me about a time you faced a challenge": "I overcame a tight deadline by organizing my tasks efficiently.", "Describe a situation where you worked in a team": "I collaborated with my team to complete a project ahead of schedule.", "Give an example of how you handled conflict": "I listened carefully and found a compromise that worked for everyone.".
