What it does

Interview Coach is an agent skill from sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills. Full job search coaching system — JD decoding, resume, storybank, mock interviews, transcript analysis, comp negotiation. 23 commands, persistent state.

Its SKILL.md is about 750 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Interview preparation, Job search and resumes and Agent memory. The repository describes itself as: AAS Core is the local, agent-first control plane for complete catalog discovery, agent-owned selection, stack validation, and planning, backed by 2,400+ agentic skills.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Interview preparation
  • Tasks that involve Job search and resumes
  • Tasks that involve Agent memory

Example prompts

  • “/interview-coach”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1e53ce2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npx

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Interview Coach loads about 751 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 341 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~42
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~751

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Interview Coach

Overview

A persistent, adaptive coaching system for the full job search lifecycle. Not a question bank — an opinionated system that tracks your patterns, scores your answers, and gets sharper the more you use it. State persists in coaching_state.md across sessions so you always pick up where you left off.

Install

bash
npx skills add dbhat93/job-search-os

Then type /coach → kickoff.

When to Use This Skill

  • Use when starting a job search and need a structured system
  • Use when preparing for a specific interview (company research, mock, hype)
  • Use when you want to analyze a past interview transcript
  • Use when negotiating an offer or handling comp questions on recruiter screens
  • Use when building or maintaining a storybank of interview-ready stories

What It Covers

  • JD decoding — six lenses, fit verdict, recruiter questions to ask
  • Resume + LinkedIn — ATS audit, bullet rewrites, platform-native optimization
  • Mock interviews — behavioral, system design, case, panel, technical formats
  • Transcript analysis — paste from Otter/Zoom/Grain, auto-detected format
  • Storybank — STAR stories with earned secrets, retrieval drills, portfolio optimization
  • Comp + negotiation — pre-offer scripting, offer analysis, exact negotiation scripts
  • 23 total commands across the full search lifecycle

Examples

/coach
kickoff

The coach asks for your resume, target role, and timeline — then builds your profile and gives you a prioritized action plan.

Example 2: Prep for a specific company
/coach
prep Stripe Senior PM

Runs company research, generates a role-specific prep brief, and queues up mock interview questions tailored to Stripe's process.

Example 3: Analyze an interview transcript
/coach
analyze

Paste a raw transcript from Otter, Zoom, or any tool. The coach auto-detects the format, scores each answer across five dimensions, and gives you a drill plan targeting your specific gaps.

Example 4: Handle a comp question
/coach
salary

Coaches you through the recruiter screen "what are your salary expectations?" moment with a defensible range and exact scripts.
