(caveat, this is approaching 20 years ago and memory gets fuzzy)

The interview reflected the resume in many ways. He had experience that aligned to the role. Most questions received extremely long answers that didn't necessarily give me more information than a much shorter one would have...and I say this as someone who prefers to ask open-ended questions that get the candidate talking. It was just endless fluff and exposition that didn't really go anywhere or add anything.

He was nominally qualified, but I could not imagine working with him given how he communicated in his resume and interview. I also didn't want to inflict his communication style on clients, as he would have had to interact with clients directly in the role.
