[ noun ] a person who is interviewed <noun.person>
interviewee \interviewee\ n. a person who is interviewed. [WordNet 1.5]
Remaining silent without assuming a withholding, harsh interpersonal stance is difficult for most interviewers, but the general rule is that the interviewee should do about 80% of the talking.
As for Sir David, dubbed by some snooty BBC types as their answer to CNN's unctuous Larry King, he blames the music, or rather the lack of it. Normally, the playing of the final signature tune is a cue for the interviewee to shut up.
Unlike this interviewee, those who truly wanted the job would rarely confront the CEO.
The interview anxiety, which is exacerbated by the stress interview, stems from the interviewee's sense that getting the job depends on a single, irreversible and time-limited performance.
