Ambiguous Brief Notes to a Problem Definition STAR Storyboard

Convert notes about an unclear assignment into an interview storyboard showing how you clarified the problem.

Prompt

Transform the uploaded photograph or photographs of my interview notes into one polished STAR interview storyboard image. Treat the photographed notes as the factual source; they are not a reference for the finished page's camera angle, handwriting, or paper texture. Read the legible content and use a single documented experience. If several separate experiences appear and the intended one is unclear, ask which one to use before generating. Choose one task that began with incomplete or conflicting requirements. Situation must identify what was unclear, rather than claim the entire organization lacked direction. Task must define what the candidate was responsible for clarifying. Action must show the actual questions, assumption checks, stakeholder conversations, or acceptance criteria recorded in the notes. Result may be a confirmed brief or an agreed next step; do not imply a completed project when only clarification occurred. Keep unresolved questions visible and do not resolve them through invented assumptions. Produce a landscape 3:2 image with four equal panels in a 2×2 grid, read left to right and then top to bottom. Use exactly the headings Situation, Task, Action, Result. Each panel should contain one simple flat-vector scene and one concise English caption of no more than 18 words; Action may use two short numbered captions totaling no more than 30 words. Keep a consistent fictional adult character, generous margins, restrained colors, high contrast, and crisp readable lettering. Use first-person wording only for my documented actions. Preserve the meaning of legible facts and any supplied metrics; never invent names, dates, achievements, quotations, or causal claims. Replace personal and company identifiers with neutral role descriptions. Depict people symbolically without inferring appearance from names. If a fact needed to form the story is illegible or missing, ask one focused question before creating the image; if I request an immediate draft, mark only that missing element 'Not specified in notes' and do not fill it in. An unrecorded result must remain unrecorded. Include no extra titles, logos, decorative labels, or text outside the storyboard. Return the storyboard image.

Upload your photo to the AI tool first, then use this prompt. The prompt asks the model to preserve identity and key visual features.

How to use it

  1. Upload a clear photo of notes about an assignment that began with unclear requirements.
  2. Include the unknowns, questions you asked, assumptions checked, and what was eventually agreed.
  3. Inspect the final storyboard for assumptions presented as facts or unfinished work presented as complete.

Common failure fixes

  • If the scene invents requirements, remove them and show only the questions and facts visible in the source.
  • If Result depicts a launched product, change it to the documented brief, decision, or next step.
  • If Situation and Task repeat each other, reserve Situation for the uncertainty and Task for your clarification responsibility.
