As an aside it was a frustrating phone interview in general. Every time I paused between sentences while answering a question she seemed to take that as an opening to ask another question. It meant a lot of talking over each other and meant that I’d just rattle off my example in a single breath without taking natural pauses. She also seemed to not be listening really well as we had a few exchanges where I really wanted to stop and say “stop talking and LISTEN!” Perhaps it was a phone delay but I never felt like I had the same challenge. I am getting passed on to the hiring manager for review and possible second interview which given how the interview seemed to go is an achievement.
