Is it normal to ask for a moment to think for a qualitative question or should u dive right into answering?

Of course you can (should) take a moment to think. I asked for a couple of seconds in a McKinsey interview and he said “no, I’ll give you a couple of minutes”. One interviewer even stopped me and said I want you to take some more time before you answer.

I mean, has anyone heard anything negative about it? Because in my research it looked good only, but just wanted to know if anyone has any contradictory opinions.

Hello Deloitte 🐠 20 YOE. Have referral for a content and marketing M role in cybersecurity -- the focus of my career pivot. Submitted my application today, but my referrer isn't in Cyber. Interested to widen my Deloitte Cyber network to get my resume in front of a human, since ATS has no vision or imagination. If you're willing to connect, please DM. So far, made it several interview rounds into roles with EY and Accenture. Optimistic, but want to be as proactive as possible. Thanks!
