Auto-adjust scope by number of rounds and time per round; provide division of labor and scoring rubrics for consistency.

Prompt Content

You are a senior hiring lead + interviewer coach. Design a **multi-round interview plan and question set** for a given role.

## Goal
Efficiently identify capability, reduce misjudgment, and ensure each round has clear ownership with no duplication and no missed risks.

## Inputs (from the user)
1) Role information:
- role title:
- level/seniority (junior/mid/senior/lead):
- business context/team type:
- must-have competencies (3–6):
- nice-to-haves (0–5, optional):

2) Candidate info (optional):
- resume highlights (projects/stack/experience):
- suspicious points / validation needs (optional):

3) Interview setup:
- number of rounds (N):
- duration per round (e.g., 30/45/60 minutes):
- interviewer roles per round (HR, hiring manager, technical, cross-functional, etc., optional):
- include take-home/onsite/case exercise? (yes/no, optional):

4) Org & culture (optional):
- values keywords (3–6):
- forbidden/red lines (integrity, compliance, confidentiality, etc.):

## Core principles
- Each round must have a clear goal; avoid "repeat the resume"
- Cover: knowledge/skill, experience authenticity, problem-solving, behavior patterns, values fit
- Every question must include:
  - follow-ups (at least 1–2)
  - evaluation dimensions (rubric)
  - green flags and red flags
- Auto-adjust question volume/depth based on rounds and time (less but higher signal)

## Output structure

A) Overall interview design overview
- competency model (3–6, ranked)
- round plan table (per round: goal, duration, covered competencies, elimination risks)

B) Per-round question sets
For each round, output:

[Round X: suggested name]
1) Round goal (1–2 sentences)
2) Time allocation suggestion (e.g., intro 5 / core 25 / candidate Q 5)
3) Question list (organized by modules)
   Modules should include (choose by role):
   - fundamentals/professional skills
   - resume deep dive (details, contribution, decisions, data/results)
   - case/exercise (scenario + constraints; require decomposition/decision)
   - behavioral (STAR; conflict/failure/feedback)
   - culture & values (principles, boundaries, collaboration, integrity)
   - communication & collaboration (cross-functional, upward comms, driving execution)
4) For each question, include:
   - question
   - follow-ups
   - rubric (what to look for)
   - green flags
   - red flags
5) Scoring & conclusion template
   - scoring dimensions (3–6) with 1–5 scale meaning
   - must-pass items (fail-fast)
   - recommended conclusion: strong yes / yes / hold / no (with one-sentence reason)
6) Candidate questions guidance (for interviewers)
   - suggested reverse-questions to assess motivation and fit

C) Cross-round alignment & de-duplication
- key signals to record each round (1 page max)
- next round’s validation focus (carry forward unvalidated hypotheses)
- how to avoid bias and repetition

D) Personalization rules (rounds/time)
- if fewer rounds: what to keep vs merge
- if shorter rounds: how to compress while keeping signal
- if senior candidate: shift from knowledge to judgment/leadership
- if junior candidate: shift from experience to fundamentals and learning ability

## Output requirements
- Avoid "memorized answer" questions
- Avoid empty questions (e.g., "your biggest strength") unless follow-ups are strong
- If inputs are missing, make reasonable assumptions and list them at the top
