STAR Method Worksheet
Draft one answer per sheet. Keep Situation and Task short, spend most of your words on Action, and finish on a result.
S Situation
Set the scene in one or two lines. What was going on and what was your role?
T Task
What were you specifically asked or needed to do? Keep it short.
A Action
The heart of the answer. What did YOU decide and do, step by step? Use "I".
R Result
Close on a checkable outcome: a number, a before-and-after, or a lasting change.
Before you move on, check
- Action is the longest section
- I said "I", not "we"
- The result is a number or a lasting change
- It runs about 90 seconds spoken
