    "Use this answer to locate the part of the experience that needs explanation. The example issue to investigate is: pairs begin without agreed goals or meeting expectations.",
    "Scheduling difficulty identifies a practical barrier in an otherwise suitable mentoring match. Agree a workable cadence or contact arrangement without interpreting unavailable meeting times as lack of commitment.",
    "Turn the requested improvement into a testable next step. One illustrative action is: provide an optional match-start conversation guide."

      "question": 2,
      "format": "Optional written explanation",
      "reason": "Keep context that distinguishes different experiences. Do not promise career outcomes."

      "question": 3,
      "format": "Optional improvement suggestion",
      "reason": "Keep the suggested change separate from whether it has been tested. Provide an optional match-start conversation guide."
