> I interviewed someone for an internship who was getting directions from someone whispering to them. I managed to hear it when they forgot to mute the mic a couple times.
What do you do when something like this happens in an interview? Do you ignore it, call out the interviewee, make a joke about it?
I ignore and cut the interview short in a subtle way, then ask HR to reject the candidate.
I'm not cold blooded enough to joke about this hahahaha
I do tend to give immediate feedback to most candidates, but I try to make it strictly technical and very matter-of-fact. A suspicion of cheating is not really something that I'd give feedback on. :/
I would tell the interviewee that I want to continue the interview with the other person since their answers indicate they’d be a good fit for the position.
