Template: Safety Case Outline for Anthropic Constitutional AI Interviews – Fill-in-the-Blanks

FAQ

Does the safety case replace the technical coding interview?
No. The safety case is a separate 35 % scoring component; you still must clear the 45‑minute coding round (e.g., implementing a constrained‑beam search in Python).

Can I reuse a safety case from a prior interview at another AI lab?
No. Anthropic’s CRF expects internal metrics (RWIS, CPC version) that other labs do not publish; reusing will be flagged as “misaligned evidence” and result in an automatic “No Hire” vote.

What if I mis‑calculate the RWIS by a few points?
Not a fatal error if the rest of the case is solid, but the debrief panel will dock 0.5 points from the alignment score. In the Q1 2024 loop, a candidate who reported 66 % instead of the correct 68 % lost the hire by a 3‑2 margin.
