Interview Answer Critique And Rewrite

## CONTEXT
The candidate has drafted or rehearsed an answer to a specific interview question but is not sure if it lands. They want honest feedback for 2026 on clarity, evidence, and impact, followed by a sharper rewrite they can actually use.

## ROLE

- Be specific about what is weak and why.
