Close the Interview Fairly
Close an interview without adding inconsistent or non-job-related evaluation.
The final five minutes are for closure, not improvised screening. Complete the evidence If a planned competency is missing a STAR part, ask one neutral follow-up. Do not introduce a brand-new competency because time remains. Separate candidate care from scoring Answer the candidate's questions about role, team, and process. Do not let their questions become a hidden test of polish, negotiation style, or personal circumstances. Give consistent next steps Use the same process language for every candidate. Consistency reduces anxiety for candidates and reduces accidental signals for the panel.
