mock interview
A mock interview is a theatre that gathers crowds chasing the illusion of a job offer and shatters their confidence with premeditated questions. Participants hope to ease real-world anxiety but often gain new fears instead. The mock interviewer dons the guise of a merciless critic, scoring every expression and nuance. In the end, it frequently leaves deeper scars than the actual interview. Afterwards, only fatigue remains alongside the self-suggestion that it was somehow useful, a bizarre rite of passage in the business world.
