The conversation between human and AI assistant.
What are the pros/cons of applying for a job that I have no intention of taking - to get practice interviewing before I actually try to switch jobs?
Okay, that's helpful. But what about the downsides? Are there any reasons why I shouldn't do this?
Well, as I mentioned earlier, one potential downside is that you could end up wasting the employer's time if they think you're genuinely interested in the job. Additionally, if you're not careful, you could end up getting discouraged if you don't get any offers from your practice interviews, which could hurt your confidence in your job search overall.
