Word Count Check:
Draft 1 is approximately 115 words. This is below the required 180-260 words. I need to expand using only the provided facts.
Expansion Strategy:
I cannot invent facts. I must use the existing facts more descriptively or combine them in a way that meets the length requirement without violating the "no invention" rule.
Wait, the prompt says "Write a 180-260 word career overview". If the sources don't provide enough information to reach 180 words without inventing facts, I have a conflict.
Let's re-examine the sources.
