The interview, not the whole system.

Anyone who sits on a panel. For the people who sit on a panel but do not own the requisition. Narrower than Mastery by design.

The cost of improvising

You sit on panels. You ask decent questions. The notes are still a paragraph of vibes, the debrief is a vote, and the next interviewer invents a different bar. That is not a skill gap in the candidates – it is a missing standard in the room.

What it is

For the people who interview but do not own the requisition. How to ask for evidence, how to follow up until an answer is specific, and how to write notes a debrief can actually use. Narrower than the Mastery Programme by design – this is the interview, not the whole system.

Format

Self-paced + clinics

Work through the material at your own pace, then practise in live clinics: the second and third question most panels never ask.

For

Anyone who interviews

Senior ICs and panel members asked to interview without ever being shown how.

Scope

The interview only

Prepare against the role, ask for evidence, follow up until it is specific, and write notes a debrief can use.

Read the one-pager, not the job advert. Know which competency is yours. Ask about what happened, not what they would do, and write the notes within ten minutes against the bar you set beforehand. Narrower than Mastery on purpose: this is the interview, not the whole system.

Where this is useful

  • Anyone who sits on a panel and does not own the requisition.
  • Senior ICs asked to interview without ever being shown how.
  • Teams rolling a standard out beyond the managers who already have it.

Where it is not

  • People who own the whole hire – that is the Mastery Programme.
  • Charisma training.
  • A script to read out loud.

What leaders say

Learning to articulate clear role expectations and the attributes candidates need to succeed has transformed my hiring approach. With that foundation, every subsequent decision becomes straightforward – we cut time-to-offer by ~30%* on our next engineering round. I appreciated the class for its pragmatic, easy-to-apply framework.

Konstanty’s "School of Hiring" is a must for any hiring manager. Throughout the programme, he not only breaks down the “why” behind each training module, but also equips you with a clear, actionable toolkit for every step of your hiring process, from the preparation all the way to crafting an onboarding plan for your new hire. I especially loved the "Hiring blueprint" and "Interview Mastery" modules. What really sets this programme apart are the 1:1 coaching sessions – first-year attrition on those hires dropped ~25%*. Can’t recommend it enough!

Konstanty and the team he built around him, is ultra-professional, laser-focused, no-frills and altogether a joy to work with. Our leadership debriefs stopped looping – decision cycles shortened by roughly two weeks* per senior hire.

Konstanty is one of the most insightful professionals I’ve worked with when it comes to hiring and organizational strategy. His ability to combine a deep understanding of business with a methodical, people-focused approach is exceptional. Working with him has been a game-changer – agency spend down ~40%* in two quarters as managers owned the process. If you’re serious about building a high-performing team, he is the person you need by your side.

Syllabus

A laptop on a standing desk by a tall window

01

Prepare against the role

Read the one-pager, not the job advert. Know which competency is yours. Write down what a strong answer would have to include before you meet anyone – so you are not inventing the bar in the room.

You produce

A written bar: which competency is yours, and what a strong answer would have to include.

02

Ask for evidence

Questions about what happened, not what they would do. One competency, held long enough to get past the rehearsed version. Fluency is not a signal. Specificity is.

You produce

Questions about what happened, held long enough to get past the rehearsed version.

03

Follow up until it is specific

When, with whom, what changed. The first answer is almost always a summary. The useful one is underneath it. Clinics are for practising the second and third question, which is where most panels stop.

You produce

The second and third question practised, until when, with whom, and what changed are on the page.

04

Write it down

Notes within ten minutes, against the bar you set beforehand, before you talk to anyone else on the panel. A debrief cannot be about the evidence if the evidence was never written.

05

Sit in the debrief

Open with what you heard, not with a yes or a no. Defend a rating with a story. Change your mind out loud when someone else’s notes are better. This is the skill most interviewers are never taught.

Included

  • Self-paced material on the interview only
  • Live clinics to practise the second and third question
  • A preparation you can repeat
  • Questions that ask for evidence, not a script to read out loud

Before you apply

I already own the hire. Is this enough?

If you also need the role defined and the loop designed, take Hiring Mastery. This course is the interview only – on purpose.

Self-paced means I never talk to anyone?

No. The material is self-paced; the clinics are live. That is where you practise the second and third question – the ones most panels never ask.

Can we roll this out to a whole team?

Yes. That is often how a standard spreads past the managers who already have it. Talk to us about a cohort for your interviewers.

Will I get a script?

You will get a preparation you can repeat, and questions that ask for evidence. Not a script to read out loud – that produces performances, not signal.
