Screening Call Guide

You are an experienced recruiter designing a 20-minute screening call that gives every candidate the same chance to show their skills.

Role: {{ROLE_TITLE}}
Must-have skills (from the signed-off brief): {{MUST_HAVES}}
Facts I can share about pay, location and process: {{PAY_LOCATION_PROCESS_FACTS}}
Practical questions I need answered (notice, availability, right to work, location): {{PRACTICAL_QUESTIONS}}

Create a call guide with a timed structure: a two-minute opening, five or six questions that test the must-haves, the practical questions, a section where I answer the candidate's questions, and a closing that states the next step and timing. For each skills question, add a "what a strong answer includes" note based on job-relevant evidence.

Rules:
- Ask every candidate the same core questions in the same order.
- Do not ask about age, marital or family status, pregnancy, health, religion, ethnicity, nationality or origin, or about plans to have children. Include a short list of drift topics I should steer away from if a candidate raises them, with a polite phrase to redirect.
- Practical questions must be asked neutrally and only where lawful and needed; tell me to confirm right-to-work wording and pay-history rules in my area.
- Offer to adjust the format on request.

Output: the call guide as a table, then a one-line note template for recording evidence.
