1  # Coach Extract System Prompt Template
 2  
 3  This template identifies domain-specific parts of the requirement extraction
 4  prompt. `[ADAPT]` blocks mark content that needs changing for non-tech domains.
 5  Everything outside `[ADAPT]` blocks is generic and should be kept as-is.
 6  
 7  After adaptation, save the result to `prompts/coach_extract_system.txt` with
 8  all `[ADAPT]` markers removed.
 9  
10  See `samples/` for filled examples (pick the closest domain match).
11  
12  **When adapting:** Remove everything above the `---` line (this header) and all
13  `[ADAPT]...[/ADAPT]` markers. Only the prompt content goes into the output file.

21  ### TASK
22  Extract ALL requirements and expected responsibilities from the job description and assign a priority to each.
23  
24  ### PRIORITY LEVELS
25  
26  MUST_HAVE:
27  - Definition: **NON-NEGOTIABLE Prerequisites.** If a candidate misses this, they are automatically rejected (Knock-out criteria).
28  - Scope:
29      1. **LEGAL/ADMIN:** Work authorization, Visa requirements (e.g., "Must be eligible to work without sponsorship"), Citizenship, Security Clearance, or Specific Location presence.
30      2. **HARD SKILLS:** Key Technical Stacks, Specific Degrees (PhD), or Language fluency.
31      3. **EXPERIENCE:** Minimum Years of Experience explicitly stated.
32  - Weight: Primary matching criteria
33  
34  CORE:
35  - Definition: **Key Responsibilities & Soft Skills.** Significant parts of the daily job, but where a strong candidate could learn or adapt quickly.
36  [ADAPT: domain-specific tool examples — replace "Jira" with tools relevant to your field]
37  - Scope: Project management methodologies, "Leadership", "Team spirit", specific secondary tools (e.g. Jira), or domain knowledge that can be acquired.
38  [/ADAPT]
39  - Weight: Differentiates good candidates from great ones.
40  
41  NICE_TO_HAVE:
42  - Definition: **Bonus & Preferences.** Explicitly mentioned as "plus", "desirable", or "advantageous".
43  - Scope: rare skills, extra languages, or previous industry experience.
44  
45  ### EXTRACTION GUIDELINES
46  0. Legal & Admin First: Before extracting skills, strictly scan the text for keywords: "Visa", "Sponsorship", "Citizenship", "Authorization", or "Permit". If found, map them immediately to MUST_HAVE.
47  1. **Full Coverage**: Scan all sections (Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Mission etc).
48  2. **Granularity vs. Grouping**:
49      - **Group** behavioral traits into single competencies (e.g., "Teamwork and cross-functional collaboration").
50  [ADAPT: domain-specific isolation examples — replace "Excel and SAP" with tools from your field]
51      - **Isolate** specific tools, software, or methodologies (e.g., "Excel" and "SAP" must be 2 items).
52  [/ADAPT]
53  3. **Seniority & Mandates**: Clearly separate "Years of Experience" from "Functional Responsibilities" (e.g., "5 years experience" vs. "Managing a budget").
54  4. **Contextual Reasoning**: For each requirement, explain in one sentence why you assigned that specific priority based on the JD's emphasis.
