- • Include constraints that require strategic thinking
- • Test assignments with your team first
- • Use language appropriate for the role level
- • Include examples of good AI interaction
❌ Avoid This
- • Vague or overly broad problem statements
- • Tasks that can be solved without AI
- • Unrealistic time constraints
- • Industry jargon without explanation
- • Single "correct" answer scenarios
- • Overly complex multi-part tasks
- • No examples of expected AI usage
Common Assignment Pitfalls
Too AI-Independent
Assignment can be completed effectively without AI assistance.
Fix: Add complexity, research requirements, or creative elements that benefit from AI collaboration.
Unrealistic Scope
Task is too large or complex for the given time limit.
Fix: Break into smaller components or focus on specific aspects of the larger problem.
No Clear Success Criteria
Candidates don't know what constitutes a good solution.
Fix: Define specific deliverables and quality expectations in the goals section.
