For those who interview what do y’all look for in your interviewees? I feel like when I ever interview for a technical role they’re looking for skills and experience first. But when I interview for a S&O/ functional role they’re looking for more fit, personality, and culture? Though i’m just at the SC level I’m probably wrong.

Technical role is always skills and experience first. If you don’t meet the bare minimum then you won’t be considered. Then it’s fit.

Non-technical roles are more about: does this person have the ability to think critically and solve difficult problems? Can this person learn new tools on the job? Would I enjoy working with this person? So it’s more about potential even though there is still a baseline to be met.

Need advice on a specific question!
Interviewed with Chicago court 2 weeks ago; they decide mid-August. Interviewed with DC judge last week; hear from him by this Friday. Chicago said if I need an answer before August, they'd try to make a decision about me sooner.
Should I ask Chicago for an answer? Or should I wait until there's an offer from DC judge? Maybe seems better to withdraw before an offer is made rather than ask for time to think about it/turn down DC? What's proper etiquette?
