Use this prompt after reviewing your Q&A prep sheet to simulate a real banker interview. Answer each question as you would in the actual meeting, and the AI will give you specific feedback on what landed well and what sounded weak or vague.
Rewrite a Loan Brief in Plain Business Language
Use this prompt after reviewing the AI-drafted loan brief if the language feels overly formal or generic. It produces a version that sounds more like you, which is important since you'll be handing it to a loan officer with your name on it.
