Generate a Set of Interview Questions for a Senior Hire
Senior candidates have rehearsed the standard questions to a shine. This generates twelve across four categories, built to surface what someone actually did and how they really think rather than the polished story they've told a dozen times. For anyone running an interview for an important hire.

3. Self-awareness (three questions): designed to surface how the candidate sees their own weaknesses and growth areas
4. Culture and values (three questions): questions that reveal alignment without asking about values directly
