IT Job Interviews: They’re All About Timing!
When you’re prepping for interviews with your IT recruiters and IT staffing firms, you probably focus on what you’ll want to highlight for your interviewer. Maybe your technical recruiters and IT recruiting agencies have told you to emphasize your experience with certain technologies or experience serving particular kinds of clients. However, the successful candidates don’t just get IT jobs based on what they say. It’s also how long they take to say it.
Most IT staffing companies and IT recruiting firms that help their candidates prepare for interviews might not think to mention that keeping your answers succinct is important. However, if you don’t budget your time well, or your take far too long to answer questions, you’ll definitely make a poor impression on your interviewer (and IT recruiting companies by extension). Check with your IT staffing agencies about how long the interview is likely to be before you go. If you know the hiring manager budgeted about an hour to meet with you, pace yourself accordingly. Taking their time into consideration will make a very good impression!
