Then you are an asshole. Seriously you wasted how many people's time for your own amusement? If you want practice or informational interviews there are ways to achieve those without being completely inconsiderate and disrespectful of peoples time.
It fits that you are suspicious of other people based on your own questionable practices. Most normal people don't do this however.
Giggles is not exactly the right word. I didn't make it just to see if I could pass or take a piss at someone.
I don't think anything is a better practice than an actual interview. Doing a rehearsal or workshops won't compare.
But thanks for the insult, random stranger.
Besides, if that was your only take away from my comment, I think you may have missed the main point. Maybe you were too infuriated by that point already.
And I think that when it comes to cumulative time-wasting, the culprit is usually more the interviewer (or the incompetent recruiting agency).
Also, would be interested in having data on the "most normal people don't do this" bit. I know plenty who do or did at some point, across several countries.
