No, the time per question is fixed at 1 minute by default in one-way interviews and dynamically chosen in two-way interviews.
However, candidates are not required to use the full 1 minute per question.
In one-way interviews, there is a submit button to proceed. In two-way interviews, the AI intelligently detects the response and seamlessly advances to the next question.
Therefore, sitting awkwardly is not mandatory until the timer is gone.
