Interviews go sideways when every panelist tests a different job, changes the bar mid-call, or writes a score with no evidence behind it. This skill starts with the approved role, hiring authority, candidate-data boundary, accessibility route, and the outcomes someone must demonstrate on the job.
It maps each competency to one observable claim, a consistent evidence method, a panel owner, and four role-specific score anchors. The workflow covers question and work-sample design, interviewer calibration, candidate instructions, factual note capture, independent scoring, contradiction review, panel debrief, and consistent recovery when a stage fails or the evidence is incomplete. Protected, private, pedigree-based, and unrelated information stays out of the score.
The handoff includes an interview contract, role evidence register, competency map, panel plan, question and exercise cards, calibration record, session cards, evidence logs, scorecards, debrief record, process-consistency review, open gates, and an evidence-matched state. It does not conduct a call without the required tools, invent candidate evidence, make employment decisions, or turn missing evidence into a low score.
