Frequently asked questions
How long should an interview slot be?
Screening interviews are usually 30 minutes; full technical or behavioural interviews are 45–60 minutes; onsite panels run 60–90 minutes with structured segments.
Should I share the timer with the candidate?
In coding interviews, yes — showing the countdown makes pacing a shared responsibility. Use the Copy link button to share a preset URL.
What about per-question limits?
Use the 10 or 15 minute preset per question in a structured panel; that leaves clear time at the end for the candidate's questions.
