  1. Open Conversations

    Before interviews start, everyone needs the same understanding of the role. Open Conversations to recover what the hiring manager agreed in the intake.

  2. Find the hiring intake

    Choose the hiring intake. It contains the first priority and an unresolved reporting line. Ask about this context to turn the discussion into a role brief.

  3. Ask for the agreed role brief

    Ask for the work, priorities and requirements explicitly agreed. Submit the question with unresolved details flagged, so an open decision stays open.

  4. Separate the priority from the open decision

    Owning customer onboarding is the first priority. The reporting line still needs a decision. Open the source to check whether either team was selected.

  5. Open the hiring discussion

    The intake summary keeps the agreed priority and the reporting question together. Read the transcript to check the exact wording.

  6. Check what is still unresolved

    Jon says the team still needs to choose between Operations and Customer Success. Neither was agreed. Return to your draft with that decision clearly flagged.

  7. Align the role before interviewing

    Confirm the reporting line with the hiring manager before interviews start. Then give interviewers the same brief, with customer onboarding as the agreed first priority.
