Interview Timer
About the Interview Timer
Interview loops fail when one segment runs long and steals time from the next candidate or question set. This Interview Timer keeps phone screens, technical portions, and culture chats inside agreed slices. Recruiters share timing with panelists on a second screen, and candidates practice answers with the same boundaries they will face live. Consistent segments also make debrief comparisons fairer.
How to use it
- Open the Interview Timer page and pick a preset or enter a custom duration.
- Label the task, client, topic, or milestone in the task field before starting.
- Press start when you begin real work, not when you open unrelated tabs.
- Pause only for true interruptions; keep the block honest for future planning.
- Stop when the alert sounds and decide consciously whether to start another block.
Good to know
A focus timer does not finish the work for you. Pick one task before you start, and keep the tab open so the break actually arrives on time.
