Then the interviewer again calls after few days and says before rolling out offer letter I want to discuss for 10 mins. And the discussion goes on for 1 hr.
PS - it is a global MNC.
No, some interviewers prefer holistic discussions rather time bounded. If you enjoyed those convos, I don’t see a reason for red flag
Bhai dikkat to tab hoti jab wo 45 min ka bol ke 15 min mai interview khatam kar deta
He is just testing the depth of your knowledge. So a few times 45 mins are less to understand the knowledge one has and that’s why they stretch or else he liked to discuss things with you so he did
Every one has their own style. As an interviewer, I always ask for a 90 minute slot from HR. Ib prefer to take interview slowly so that candidate is comfortable. However sometimes HR miss the memo and book only for 60 minutes.
If I was being interviewed for 1.5 hrs instead of 45 mins, I would be happy. Firstly this pretty much ensures the interview is going great thats why it is going for soo long. Secondly the interviewer is teasing your boundaries by going indepth with your concepts and wants to check where your limits to the knowledge are. Noone wants to roast or humiliate someone for 1.5hrs.
You should be worried only if the interview didn't last for 45 minutes. Bored interviewers usually cut it short. An interviewer unless they like you as a candidate wouldn't extend it beyond the scheduled time. There's no need for an interviewer to spend 2x the time with a candidate they don't even want to proceed with.
I don't understand who decided that interviews should be one hour only, most of the companies seem to be following the same.
Nobody knows how to interview candidates, everyone is just following a herd like a sheep at this point.
If you mutually agree to continue, its fine right? It only means that the interviewer likes you and wants go deeper into discussions
It’s a red flag about you that you are so stressed about this
Would you continue interviewing with a hiring manager who reschedules at the last minute? (less than 10 minutes to the interview)

I’m not a big fan of 6 rounds of Dynamic programming, but, should easy interviews be viewed as red flags? I recently landed an offer from a startup ( <50 employees ). They had only 1 tech round ( API development assignment ). Rest was ta...
It's become quite a norm for interviewers to jump out of the scheduled slot in between of the interviews, stating abrupt production issues. This is my second in the last 4 companies I've interviewed with.
Is this normal?
