Partners, what would make you skip the Q&A portion at the end of an interview? I just had a final round interview with a partner and even though we had about 3 minutes left after the case, he essentially showed me out of the Zoom room without inviting any questions (I actually prepared a couple beforehand). Should I take this as a rejection or could there be other reasons?

Congrats OP. Enjoy your weekend.

I’m not a partner but sometimes they forget. Or maybe they had another call right after and needed to use the bathroom.

I wouldn’t stress over it until there’s some actual news.
