Interview Rubric

Scoring grid with dimensions, levels (1–5), and anchored behaviors per level.

A rubric forces interviewers to score on the same dimensions and anchors what each score means. It's the operating system of structured interviewing.

A good rubric has 3–5 dimensions per interview, behavioural anchors at each level (so a '4' means the same thing across interviewers), and explicit guidance on what evidence to collect. Generic 'communication: good' scoring drifts within months — anchored 'communication: 4 = explained tradeoffs without prompting, used concrete examples' does not.
