Define competencies before questions

Select four to six capabilities that predict work in the role. Describe observable evidence for strong, mixed and weak answers before meeting candidates.

Ask the same core questions

Consistent prompts improve comparability. Follow-up questions can explore evidence, but each candidate should receive the same core opportunity to demonstrate capability.

Write evidence before discussion

Have interviewers submit independent notes before the panel debrief. This reduces anchoring on the first or most senior opinion.
