NICE capability assertions
Assess claimed capabilities against leaf NICE Framework TKS statements, evidenced by portfolio, assessment result or structured interview.
01Walk me through an incident you handled end to end. What did you see first, and what did you do about it?
Tests claimed capability against lived detail rather than vocabulary.
02Which part of that work would you do differently now, and what changed your mind?
Genuine practitioners revise their own methods; recited claims do not.
03How did you confirm the activity was actually malicious and not benign?
Probes analytical method, the part a portfolio cannot evidence.
04Talk me through this in your own words.
An open prompt before any specific probing; establishes the subject's own account.
05Is there anything about this that could look worse on paper than it was in practice?
Invites the subject to pre-empt a discrepancy rather than be confronted with one.
