[IPAC-List] Time for Situational Interview Questions

[Leilani Yan M.]

We agree with Paul, 10-12 situational questions in an hour, including a little time up front to orient the interviewee to the process.

Subject: [IPAC-List] Time for Situational Interview Questions

Following up on the recent discussion, does anyone have any benchmarks or recommendations as to how many good situational or behavioral interview questions can be asked per hour (and answered of course) or put another way - how many minutes per question?

Does it vary by the complexity of job? So is the time longer for managerial jobs? I would tend to guess so but not sure.
