Write an interview guide with explicit objectives
Separate what you need to learn from how you will ask, so questions serve the objective.
What this prompt helps you do
A guide where each question maps to an objective, with probes and the leading questions removed.
When to use it
Interview guides are being written as question lists without stated objectives.
What to prepare
The goal, relevant source material, constraints, examples, and the decision or action this should support.
How to get a strong result
Remove questions that map to no objective; they consume the session and produce unusable data.
How to use this prompt
Replace each placeholder with accurate context. Paste the complete prompt into Claude, review the response critically, resolve important questions, and use it as a considered input to the next decision—not as an unchecked final answer.
