• 7 Signs That Your Job Interview Went Well
• When the interview lasted longer than expected,
  the interviewer's body language was pleasant,
  the conversation flowed naturally, and so on, you
  know you had an excellent job interview. One of
  the most crucial aspects of the employment
  process is the interview. While determining how
  well a job interview went isn't always easy,
  there are a few indicators that the hiring
  manager is interested in. In this article, we'll
  go over some signs that your job interview went
  well, as well as how to determine if it didn't.
• The interview goes on for a little longer than
  intended
• While numerous factors influence the length of an
  interview, the more time a hiring manager spends
  with you, the more likely they are to want to
  hire you. If your interview feels like it's going
  on forever since the interviewer enjoys talking
  to you about the job, it's an indication that
  things are going well.
• The length of the interview will, of course,
  depend on where you are in the hiring process.
  Before scheduling a second meeting with the
  hiring manager or decision-maker, some firms may
  do an initial phone screening. The first
  interview is usually the shortest, while the
  subsequent interviews are usually the longest.
• Examine your interviewer's facial expressions
• During the interview process, nonverbal cues are
  especially telling. Is the recruiter interested
  and enthusiastic about what you're saying? Are
  their arms crossed, which is a terrible
  indicator, or are they leaning forward in their
  chair, listening to every word, which is a good
  indicator? It may be difficult to pick up on
  some of this during a virtual interview, but it's
  a positive indicator if you feel like you've
  connected with the interviewer.
• You'll be given a thorough tour of the workspace
• Getting a tour of the workspace, like being
  introduced to other team members, can indicate
  that your job interview is going well. The
  interviewer is showing you around and getting a
  sense of how you will fit into the position and
  area. It's a good sign that your job interview is
  going well if you appear relaxed and at ease in
  your future work surroundings.

• Your communication and interpersonal abilities
  are highlighted in an interview that flows
  smoothly. Having a good rapport with the
  interviewer indicates that they enjoy interacting
  with you, which is a good sign that the
  interview went well. You can also gauge the
  amount of participation by observing the
  interviewer's nonverbal communication and how
  they react to your interview replies. An
  interview that flows seamlessly from business to
  casual chat can assist in persuading the
  recruiting manager that you'd be a good fit for
  the company's culture. People hire people they
  enjoy working with, so if you can easily hold a
  conversation with them, they could enjoy working
  with you as well.
• You have the impression that the position is
  being sold to you
• It's a good sign that the interview is going well
  when the interviewer appears to be selling you on
  the employment prospect. Interviewers understand
  that if they're serious about hiring you, other
  employers will be as well. When a job interview
  begins to feel like the interviewer is
  campaigning to hire you, it's a sign of success.
• You've been questioned about the logistics of
  hiring.
• Many hiring managers won't ask about hiring
  logistics unless you're being considered for an
  open position. Questions about how much notice
  you'll have to give your current job or when
  you'll be able to start may signal a significant
  interest in you. It's also likely that the
  recruiting manager will inquire about your
  expected start date or whether you're actively
  interviewing with other companies. This informs
  them as to how swiftly they must offer you the
  job.
• Conclusion
• Finally, it's fantastic if they want you to meet
  other members of the team. If they weren't
  serious about you for the job, they wouldn't
  spend the time of their other employees.
