Quite. This is what I'm getting at. We do lots of things in life out of
necessity and compliance, but they are mostly specific, one-off events. A
job is what you spend most of your own life doing (save for sleep). Is the
interview an isolated ritual or the first day of a job? What do you want it
to be?
Incidentally, it took me a better part of a decade to finally figure out
that, as the one hiring, I needed the (right) candidates more than they
needed us, even if they may not have realized it.
