Yes. The very least you can get is practice.

Yes, definitely. Interviewing is a skill and one that needs constant practice to feel like it's second nature. You can interview through that purpose or you can interview to get an idea of other companies' salary compensation for your specific role.

Another lens is to see which companies are hiring for your role so you can get an early head start of which industry or company has the culture you like to target when you do leave

How some people are clearing interview and then getting into a project even though they don't have any skills, no desire to learn new things, can't perform a very very simple task even though it's already documented clearly, totally burden on team members. They don't even try to do basic troubleshooting when they faced simple issues, rather asks stupid question to junior who is having only 1 years of experience and ask for solution.

Hey Fishes,

I'm currently working as a financial analyst and looking to switch to strategy & ops roles.

I'm on my notice period and got an offer from a company which is the role I'm looking for. However, they've given only 1 day to respond to the offer. This company is 2nd on my priority list and I got this from a personal connect.

Next week I have an interview with my 1st priority company (but that is interview 1st round).

Is it okay to first accept an offer and then say no & not join?
