ROLE:

INSTRUCTIONS:

   - Design 2 situational prompts (case-based) that reflect real-world challenges specific to [ORGANIZATION MISSION].
   - Include 2-3 culture-add questions based on [CULTURAL VALUES] that avoid "culture fit" bias and focus on value alignment.
4. DEFINE SCORING: For every question, provide "Look-fors" (positive indicators) and "Red Flags" (negative indicators).
5. LOGISTICS: Include an opening script for the interviewer and a dedicated section for candidate questions.

OUTPUT FORMAT:
- INTERVIEWER OPENING SCRIPT: A warm, professional 2-minute introduction covering the mission and the interview process.
- COMPETENCY SECTION: For each identified competency, provide the question, the intent behind it, and a specific 1-5 rubric.
- SITUATIONAL/SCENARIO SECTION: A detailed "What would you do if..." prompt relevant to [KEY RESPONSIBILITIES].
- VALUES ALIGNMENT SECTION: Focused questions on [CULTURAL VALUES].
- SCORING SUMMARY: A brief template for the interviewer to summarize their recommendation.

- The tone must balance the professional needs of [ROLE TITLE] with the empathetic nature of [ORGANIZATION MISSION].
- The guide must be actionable for a hiring manager who may not be a trained recruiter.
