- 3Add context: Describe your role and key projects. Example: "Role: UX Designer. Key projects: Design system refresh, mobile app redesign, user research study."
- 4Include metrics: Share specific numbers like "Improved NPS by 15 points" or "Reduced support tickets by 30%"
- 5Paste the prompt into your preferred AI tool, like ChatGPT or Claude
- 6Fill in the framework: Use the structure to organize your accomplishments with specific examples
- 7Be honest: Include both successes and growth areas - self-awareness is valued

- • Include feedback: Reference positive feedback from colleagues, stakeholders, or users
- • Show growth: Highlight how you've improved or taken on new challenges
- • Be specific: "Led design system audit that standardized 30+ components" beats "Worked on design system"
- • Prepare early: Don't wait until review time - document accomplishments throughout the period
