Design a take-home assessment for a {{Job Title}} role at {{level}} that a candidate can finish in {{X hours}} or less. WHAT IT NEEDS TO TEST: {{the 1-3 real skills or judgment calls that matter most for this role, not a checklist of every tool}} WHAT THE WORK ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE: {{a real, non-confidential example of a problem this team solves}} OUR POLICY ON AI USE: {{allowed / allowed if disclosed / not allowed}} WHO REVIEWS SUBMISSIONS: {{and how much time they have per submission}} Give me: 1. The exercise as candidate-facing instructions: the scenario, what to submit, the time box, and what we will and won't judge. 2. A scoring rubric with 3-4 criteria and what a strong, acceptable and weak submission looks like for each. 3. One explicit "you do NOT need to" line, so nobody over-invests to impress us. 4. A built-in decision point with no single right answer, so the submission shows judgment rather than just output. 5. A 20-30 minute follow-up discussion plan where the candidate walks us through their choices. 6. Your honest estimate of how long a competent candidate will really take, compared with my time box. 7. Anything that makes this feel like unpaid work on our real product, and how to change it.
