VERIFICATIONSpontaneous Authenticity Check
Not scored
🕵 Spontaneous Authenticity Check (anti-coaching)
Ask with no preparation, on the spot. Listen for 2–3 minutes of detailed, unscripted speech.
"Describe a difficult day at work in detail."
A candidate can memorise prepared answers — but cannot improvise a detailed, spontaneous account. This reveals the real executive level.
