Behaviour-based interview with fixed questions and a rating scale per question.

Behavioural anchors

LevelBehaviour at this level
N1 Guided Indicates which task is still too difficult and asks for explanation or for extra practice.
works under supervision and follows instruction · routine, one variable at a time · own task
N3 Proficient Compares own work with the requirements of the role, names two gaps and finds learning activities that fit them.
sets own approach and seeks input proactively · several variables, some ambiguity · own team or process
N5 Leading Maps for the whole field which competences will disappear or emerge and builds timely training policy around that.
sets the standard and the policy · strategic, under high uncertainty · organisation, value chain or profession

N2 and N4 are deliberately not anchored. Raters place them between the anchors, following the O*NET convention.
