# Interview Designer
**Evidence-Based Interview Planning**
Design interview questions using Scorecard → Forensic Scan → Future Simulation. Avoid confirmation bias and produce structured interview guides (Scorecard + Red Flags/Green Signals + Pressure Tests + Future Scenarios) with Geoff Smart, Lou Adler, and Daniel Kahneman as the default expert panel.
---
## When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when:
- You need to design interview questions for a specific role
- You want to avoid confirmation bias in interview planning
- You're creating a structured interview guide (Scorecard + Questions + Pressure Tests)
- You need to balance past validation with future simulation
---
## Methodology: Scorecard → Forensic → Future
| Phase | Expert | What You Define |
|-----------------|---------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| **1. Scorecard**| Geoff Smart | Mission, Outcomes, Competencies — *before* looking at any resume |
| **2. Forensic Scan** | Smart + Domain | Resume gaps vs. highlights; "Too Good To Be True" / "Driver vs Passenger" heuristics |
| **3. Future Simulation** | Lou Adler | Performance problems the candidate would face in your context; week-one scenarios |
---
## What You Get
| Output | Template | Purpose |
|-------------------|------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------|
| **Interview Guide** | `templates/interview_guide_template.md` | Scorecard + Red Flags/Green Signals + Pressure Tests + Future Scenarios |
The guide includes both concerns (**Red Flags**) and highlight verification (**Green Signals**) for objective assessment.
---
## Design Principles
1. **Cannot Be Memorized** — Questions force real-time thinking (simulation) or concrete recall (pressure test).
2. **Forced Trade-offs** — Choose between two "correct" options to surface values, not just knowledge.
3. **Detail Granularity** — Probe to "what exact words did you say" or "what diagram did you draw."

## Quick Reference
| Interview Goal | Question Type | Example |
|---------------------|---------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Validate past claims| Pressure Test (STAR) | "Walk me through the specific metrics you tracked and how you used them." |
| Predict future fit | Future Simulation | "Here's our Q1 challenge. How would you approach it in your first week?" |
| Detect blind spots | Trade-off Question | "Speed vs. quality — which would you sacrifice here, and why?" |
