Screening questionnaire — Step 2 of 2

This is where we get to know how you actually think and work. There are no trick questions and no single "right" answers — use any AI assistant you like on the tasks. Budget about 30–45 minutes. Please complete it in one sitting; the form doesn't save drafts.

A · Match to your application

B · Background & motivation

C · How you work with AI copilots

This is the part we care about most. Be concrete.

D · Practical tasks

Use any AI assistant you like. We want to see how you direct the tool, push back on it, and turn its output into something you'd put your name on.

Task 1 — Critical assessment (and catch the AI's mistakes)

Below is a (fictional) marketing brief for a consumer health device. Using an AI assistant, produce a tight one-page critical assessment that: (a) restates what is actually being claimed; (b) flags every claim that is unsupported, overstated, or implausible — and explains why; (c) lists the specific evidence you would demand before trusting it; (d) gives a clear go / no-go recommendation for a 20-person pilot. Note: an AI assistant will get some of this wrong or be too credulous — part of the task is noticing where, and not repeating its mistakes.

"The Auralux band uses quantum bioresonance to read your cells' energy field and is 99% accurate at predicting illness three days before any symptoms appear. Clinically validated in a study of 12 users. Wearers saw sleep quality improve 40% and their biological age drop by two years in just 8 weeks. All processing happens on the band itself, so your data never leaves the device. $299."

Task 2 adapts to the role you selected above — do the one shown.

Task 2 (analysis roles) — Replicate an analysis for a new market

This is close to work you'd actually do. We run market and industry analytics for the longevity field, and we replicate it across regions. Using an AI assistant, take one analytics deliverable — for example an industry/competitor map or a market dashboard — and produce a first pass at rebuilding it for the US, Canada, and Mexico longevity market: what sources you'd use, how you'd structure it, what you'd compare, and the biggest gaps or risks. First-pass thinking is fine — we want to see how you'd structure the work, not a finished study.

Task 2 (Commercial & Partnerships) — A growth first pass

This is close to work you'd actually do. Pick one, and use an AI assistant: (a) outline how you'd bring the first 100 patients to a new longevity clinic in a North-American city — channels, message, partners, and how you'd measure it; or (b) outline how you'd approach a potential partner clinic for a joint venture — who you'd target, your opening, what you'd offer, and how you'd handle the obvious objection. First-pass thinking is fine — we want to see how you'd structure it and use data, not a finished plan.

Task 3 — Honest answer under pressure

A stakeholder wants you to "prove" that a popular longevity supplement works. The evidence available is one small, uncontrolled study plus a lot of enthusiastic testimonials. Write the short, honest answer (4–6 sentences) you would actually send them — using an AI assistant if you like.
