How Long Should Answers Be in a Job Interview?

Most answers should be around 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Give enough detail to answer the questions and don’t turn it into a long story.

A simple trick is to answer the main point first, then add an example if needed.

Also watch the interviewer’s face and body language. If they look ready to move on, finish your thought. Good answers are not just about length. They should make it easy for the other person to ask the next question.
