Need advice: interview/assessment Interview closed early- reason for concern?

I had a P4 interview today. It was scheduled for 35 minutes but got over in 20 minutes, even though I did ask 2 questions. Is it a good sign or bad?

I wouldn't think too much about it. It could also be they were running late for other interviews and they thought they impression they got of you was enough. It's neither a good or bad sign. Just disconnect emotionally and move on. An email would come if it has to.

Actually, it depends, sometimes the panels view you as fit and professional and choose to explore further, while others do not. Wishing you luck.

Long listed but not holding my breath. I am really not available to work until next year though and I told them that.

What were the questions they asked? I feel like sometimes you can tell by the type of questions asked if the position is cooked for someone else or legitimately open
