I interviewed last week and I've been wondering if a longer interview is better than a short one?

How long was yours? Mine went the whole thirty mins others were shorter. I would think if it went any shorter they tend to not be very interested.

I think mine was about 45 minutes. It was a behavioral interview and I asked several questions at the end. I was one of the last ones to finish interviewing. I think a longer interview is better although my answers to some of the questions definitely weren't the greatest.

If you don't mind sharing, what type of questions did they ask you??

Questions like tell me about a time you took initiative or tell me about a time you used logic to solve a complex problem

Yeah, if you interviewed a long time I would assume they were interested! Good news for you then!

My interview lasted almost one hour 😵 I had no idea how it was that long until I left and the rest of the applicants waiting asked me "What took so long? You were there for an hour." I was told that interviewers like it when you ask questions at the end, so when they posed the famous "Do you have any questions for us?" Well, lets just say that I did lol. I asked 3-4 questions which they were more then willing and happy to talk about. Most of my interview was really just me and the interviewers conversing about the program and the school. So is it a good thing? Only time will tell...
