How early do you arrive for an interview?
I feel like this is an important topic to discuss for interviewing that a lot of people don't think about. In my opinion, the candidate should never arrive more than 15 minutes before their scheduled interview start time unless they are specifically told to do so in order to fill out paperwork.
I feel like if I were to arrive too early it can look like I didn't know when the interview was or the company has to go out of their way to accommodate me, especially if it's a small office.
Are there any other opinions on this?
Yeah I need a really excellent job
15 min early
I have definitely always felt that arriving sooner than 15 minutes puts an awkward onus on the people to entertain you, or have you waiting too long. It can put the hiring manager or HR person off because they can feel obligated to change their schedule to accommodate you. Potential to be very uncomfortable for both parties, which doesn't put you in a good light overall.
I always arrive 15 min early.
