generally meetings that end short are 'bad', that's been my experience anyways. longer or meetings that at least go through the time scheduled are usually better.

don't overthink it though! i've had a phone interview where the person on the other line was openly 'sigh-ing' at my responses to his questions so you didn't do that bad :)

"BlackBear" Phone interview was supposed to be 30 minutes at the maximum. It lasted for 20 minutes. Is that bad? I guess I am overthinking it...

You're done! That's basically it. Your college degree can't help you now. You were Yale Skull and Bones you say? Nah bro, that even won't make up for this atrocity.

Time to join the Peace Corps.
