The interview can be customised in BSGO to best suit the needs of educators and learners. Aspects that can be customised include:
- Job role: what position is the learner interviewing for?
- Company: who is hiring?
- Job description: what are the requirements and responsibilities of the role? Note that this is used by the LLM (large language model) to generate interview questions. You can write your own, upload a PDF or leave it blank if you wish to set the questions yourself.
- Questions to be asked: you can write your own, or have the LLM generate questions based on the job role and description.
- Number of questions: how many questions should be generated or asked?
- Interviewer(s): you can select up to three interviewers, each of whom has a distinct personality and difficulty level.
- Environment: you can choose from three environments.
- Response structure: you can choose to have the learner’s responses assessed by how well they meet the CAR or STAR structures.
- Allow help: you can choose to allow the learner to ask for help answering a particular question.
- Allow follow-up questions: should the interviewers be allowed to ask LLM-generated follow-up questions after the learner gives an answer, if they want more details?
You can also edit technical details like the activity title, description and instructions for the learner, based on how you tailor the scenario. Optionally, you can also allow the learner to set the job details, in which case they will be able to enter a job when they launch the simulation and the LLM will generate questions for it.

Note: The prompt contains a safeguard to prevent inputting illegal, explicit or harmful jobs – it will generate questions for a barista interview instead, but as with all LLM generation, we cannot guarantee it will be perfectly effective under all circumstances. Please see the disclaimer below.
