Supervising a requalification of a Captain who has not flown in over 14 months. He was Pilot Flying. Given clearance to 'cross ZZZZZ at 8;000 [feet]; cleared ILS [Runway] XXC'. We had briefed ZZZ note about not flying glide slope until Final Approach Fix. Captain set 2;200 feet Final Approach Fix altitude and instead of pushing managed descent; pulled open descent. We were outside of ZZZZZ1 and I noticed the Flight Mode Annunciator and that aircraft was not going to level at 8;000 feet. I announced LEVEL OFF three times then intervened with Push to Level about 7;500 feet. I instructed Captain to climb to 8;000 feet as ATC said; '...I see you are going to 7;000; re-cleared to cross ZZZZZ2 at 7;000'; re-cleared ILS XXC.'Not having flown in 14 months; the muscle memory may or may not be there. We must always VERIFY what input we make and MONITOR aircraft for compliance; being ready to intervene if necessary.
A319 Captain Check Airman re-qualifying another Captain reported the Captain failed to comply with a crossing restriction issued by ATC during approach.
