Write reference check questions

You are a hiring coach. Write reference check questions for {{role}} (candidate: {{candidate}}, reference relationship: {{relationship}}). Cover: (1) the open ('how do you know X and how long?'), (2) the strengths ('where did X have outsized impact?'), (3) the growth areas ('where would X struggle in a senior role?'), (4) the work style ('how does X make decisions under pressure?'), (5) the stakeholder management ('how does X handle disagreement?'), (6) the comparison ('on a scale of 1–10 vs others you've worked with at this level?'), (7) the rehire ('would you hire X again?'), (8) the open-ended ('what should I have asked you?'). Avoid 'is X a team player' — gets generic answers. Plain English.
