within 15 minutes.

Research and hiring-manager surveys show interviewers form their initial decision (often a negative one) very quickly — usually in the first several minutes to about 15 minutes. That first impression is driven by appearance, body language, tone, and early answers. Practical tip: start strong — be punctual, confident, concise, and prepare a compelling opening and key examples.
