If you’re that early, just find the person you would report to if you got the job and sit at their desk. You’re in charge now.

15 minutes is the general rule of thumb. More than that and I think you're a burden...
Ding ding ding.

When I had my first interview, I had to drive from Altoona to Rockville, Maryland. This was in the morning, mind you, so I also had to factor in traffic on 270. I ended up getting to the office about 45 minutes early, which was fine by me. I sat in the car and just unwound and went over the key points I wanted to touch on. Then I walked in about 15 minutes early.

As someone that interviews a lot of people (and works with hiring managers that do), it is annoying as F if you show up that early.

I was assigned to a new project with the worst PM that I've ever had to deal with. He held a kickoff meeting and then told everyone to schedule their own meetings with others to figure out the rest.

There’s also a 100% chance that he doesn’t wash his hands after using the bathroom.
