- foobarian 5y agoGotcha. I think I was mostly objecting to the first several words of your comment saying an interview is decided in the first several seconds :-) I'm familiar with that feeling though. I've had several interviews where I really (subjectively) liked the candidate, and really wanted them to succeed - but having a prepared interview plan ended up doing its job and helped determine that the candidate was not a good match for the role.
- smus 5y agoDoes this apply for technical interviews though?
