Sod it OP, walk into that Interview, pop an alarm clock on the Interviewer desk, demand the wi-fi password, get out tablet/laptop and connnect, then announce that at 11.55 you'll need a 30 min break for something more important.

Can't forsee any issues with that approach

Oh and the answer to every question is "Magic Kingdom" !

Can I just point out that if you’re still talking after an hour you probably won’t get the job .

There are some really odd posts on this thread! Why wouldn't you get a job if an interview lasts an hour?

Maybe just my experience but for our team a job interview that lasts an hour has gone on too long.

Surely if its not going well it wraps up sooner. And the time taken depends on the interviewer(s) as much as the candidate (plus the job I guess), some will take a lot of time to explain context etc.

Yes it does. For our posts an hour is too long generally.

This has gone off tangent...

Love it- and don’t think I’m not considering it as an option 😂😂

UNLESS the job interview is with Disney... in which case they ought to understand

My friend's niece is in the final stages of some form on internship with WDW. Fingers crossed I get some cheaper tickets/bookings out of it

Why would it have caused added stress? A job provides an income, a holiday is a holiday! I guess we all have different perspectives.

Yes I think that is probably specific to you. In my workplace experience and personal experience, an interview taking longer than an hour is a sure sign of success.

And as for booking FPs, I am incredulous that somebody would book a day off work and then be concerned about a clash with an interview! It is not that hard to book a FP at sixty days out.
