Running Over Interview Time?

Is it typically considered negative or positive if you end up running over your interview time with a partner?

Neither!

A successful (and unsuccessful) interview can run both under and over the time booked in. I hope that helps! Let me know if need to expand

Completely agree with what Holly has said. You're not being tested on your ability to keep time here, it's all about the actual substance of your answers. I've had interviews that ran both over and under time by 30 minutes and still been successful in both. I hope this reassures you somewhat!

I wouldn't think too much about it- I've had successful/unsucessful interviews that have gone either way, sometimes it's just the nature of that particular interview
