As a former interviewER, I can say that a not-perfect interview is not a
deal breaker.

I would truly get more nervous at a perfect interview. Either they had too
much practice in interviews (which may not be a good sign), they are great
people-people and had completely charmed me out of my objectivity, or they
really were perfect for the job.

I also know that often the person giving the interview is as nervous, and
may be sitting at home thinking "I lost total control of that interview: it
went on way too long. I hope he will still consider the job, and not judge
our project management and development by that interview!".

Hoping for you.
Jerry
