Hiring Debrief
When to use
Use this skill for hiring debrief when you need to synthesize interviewer evidence into a decision. The expected result is a debrief record with open questions.
Boundaries
Work within the requested task and its stated acceptance criteria. Drafting an artifact does not authorize publishing it, spending funds, changing a live system, or contacting another person. Identify any such action separately before taking it.
Inputs
Inspect role requirements, hiring stage, candidate evidence, interview rubric, and constraints. Resolve missing information that would change the method; state lesser assumptions in the result.
Method
- Diagnose. Translate the role into observable capabilities and a consistent scoring rubric before assessing candidates.
- Decide. Use job-related criteria and structured comparisons.
- Produce. Build a debrief record with open questions from the inspected material; keep assumptions distinguishable from observed facts.
Decision rules
- Collect evidence through structured questions or work samples; exclude irrelevant personal attributes.
- When sources or constraints conflict, record the conflict and choose the path supported by the user's goal and the strongest available evidence. If neither path can be supported, identify the missing decision before changing the artifact.
Domain rules
- Avoid invented candidate facts and irrelevant personal attributes.
- Preserve a consistent candidate experience and decision record.
Verification
Separate evidence from impressions. Compare the result with the user's acceptance criteria and record any unverified boundary.
Return an interview guide or decision record showing evidence per criterion and unresolved gaps.
Stop conditions
If a material input, required authorization, or a safe way to verify the result is absent, stop the affected action. Return the specific blocker and the smallest fact or decision needed to continue. Do not report an unrun check as passed.
Output
Provide a debrief record with open questions. Include the decisive evidence and actual verification result. Name any artifact location and unresolved issue that affects its use.
