As an HR expert. If you exceeded the 15 minutes lateness threshold, you will only need a superlative performance at the interview and your soberness for being late to scale the interview. Just hopefully you apologised firstly before attending to the questions thrown at you. Good luck in advance all the same. 2 Likes |

I remember I got a message to prepare for a zoom interview for a job then ... Went straight to my junk box...dint even know On the interview day...I wasn't online (never knew a message came in) The HR called me and was like Mr Dawson...the board is waiting for you to connect!....I was like what board...who are you mehn... He explained himself and company bla bla bla...I remember straight up I applied for the job... He said you wanna take the test now or some other time ....I knew the "some other tym is now or never" I said yes! Let's do it... Was driving actually... parked at a restaurant Then I checked the mail Got the Zoom ID .. And I started my test without preparation... I remembered the CEO said "I'm really surprised you smashed it!!! Can you come by the office tommorow and we run a background check before you sign your appointment letter!!!! So dear...be positive 8 Likes |

Yes and that was one of the best interview chats I have had. It rained so heavily and I didn't get shade to hide, I was so soaked on getting to the office, the consultants had to give me another 30mins to sit and dry up a bit. Something I have also learnt is getting late for an interview is not a crime. if you would as a matter of curtesy send in a message/mail which I always do when I am in such situation. '''' Dear . . . . I am currently on my way around . . . but it appears I might be coming in late as I am currently held up in traffic. My sincere apologies Regards, ''' You have some coverage when this kinda message goes ahead of you, 5 Likes |

Lanesra: Depends on your disposition and how you handled it. arriving late is not a crime or an automatic disqualification but how you played along with the scenario. Did you inform the HR before time you were running late Did you apologies (not beg) for running behind schedule. With a bit of professional curtesy, you be good. All the best |

In 2012, I was 1 hour late and drenched by heavy rain for my interview with Bechtel Corporation. The HR Manager, Leah, led me to a warm office, turned off the AC and offered me hot coffee. I got the job. I'm forever grateful to the workplace culture at Bechtel Corporation. It shaped me in positive ways. 3 Likes |
