Why Google Believes an Interview Should Never Last More Than 30 Minutes

In a typical interview at Google it is very rare to have an interview that last more than 30 minutes. They believe that by cutting the interview down to the core you are able to really make it more productive and find out more of what you need to know. With more substantial discussion Google trusts their interviewers to know if they want to have another one or not.


I think it’s very smart of Google to do this and other companies should follow suit. It cuts out all the unneeded sucking up and really gets to know who that person is and the things they want to do. It also would be nice for the potential employee because half an hour is much easier to sit through than any longer times. The interview limits also help companies from leading them along for too long.
